I would reject even doubtlessly valid sacraments from heretics, even in danger of death.

As far as I am aware, there is no recommendation to accept such.

St. Hermenegild was in that situation and rejected.

So you would die without valid sacraments, just because a heretic is administering them?

Even baptism?

Can't go there with you, sorry.  Even the pre-V2 Church allowed this.

I am baptised (shortly before NO + conditional), and we got perfect contrition and spiritual communion.

And yes, I prefer to follow the example of St. Hermenegild.

Yeah, it would bother my conscience too much. Just think what the devil could/would do with that! He'd start tempting you to despair, since you probably missed many Masses in your life due to lack of Tridentine Mass option. It's basically burning the single grain of incense to false gods, or when Rome demanded that +ABL say "just one" Novus Ordo Mass. Doing so would condemn your past life.
