If Francis died tomorrow, would the non una cuм absolutist's then say that it was licit to attend an SSPX/R&R Mass since it would not have a Novus Ordo claimant to insert in the Canon? In other words, illicit today, licit tomorrow, then illicit again after the Conclave?
I actually believe that most of them would. I have enjoyed the (material) interregna because for a few days "we're all sedevacantists" ... and we can put aside the bickering and division on that issue. Although I think someone like Meg would still excoriate me for being a sede-whateverist.As I've mentioned, I'm a dogmatic indefectibilist, so whether or not one puts the papal claimant in the Canon doesn't matter to me per se. I could see a case for a sedeprivationist including the material pope in the Canon. Even the uber-dogmatic Dimonds say that by itself it's not all that significant. One could be correct (IMO of course) on all the core principles, like a Fr. Chazal, and still put the papal claimant into the Canon based on following the opinion of Cajetan and John of St. Thomas. I can't really argue about that at all.
