The dogma is that the Holy Ghost will not allow a pope to teach heresy to the whole Church when he defines a doctrine ex cathedra, not when he teaches in his official capacity as pope.
.
This goes against (condemned) Proposition 22 of the Syllabus of Errors:
22. The obligation by which Catholic teachers and authors are strictly bound is confined to those things only which are proposed to universal belief as dogmas of faith by the infallible judgment of the Church. — Letter to the Archbishop of Munich, “Tuas libenter,” Dec. 21, 1863.
I don't see the connection. Of course the Catholic teachers, especially the pope are obligated to teach all the Catholic truths and not just ex cathedra definitions. The conciliar popes have not defined anything ex cathedra so again, where's the connection?
The dogma on papal infallibility states that the pope enjoys the divine protection from error when he speaks ex cathedra, that is, when he defines a doctrine concerning faith or morals to the universal Church, this is the meaning of the term "ex cathedra."
The dogma of papal infallibility, by stating in what respect the pope cannot err, admits, in effect, that in all other areas of his vast prerogatives the pope is completely fallible. What this means is that papal fallibility is as much a part of the dogma as papal infallibility.
Understanding that "new doctrine" = heresy, V1's saying that there is no divine protection for new doctrines means exactly that. It does not mean that the pope cannot or will not preach heresy, rather, it means that should the pope preach heresy, there will be no divine protection, which suggests that popes could indeed preach heresy - because there will be no divine protection if/when he does.
