Fair enough. That didn't seem obvious to me, but of course I accept your word on this.
Again: the salient questions are: Did the pope's representative in that meeting misrepresent him, or fail to represent him? Why and how were the pope's wishes in this matter contravened? The investigation should yield the answers to those questions. I won't be losing any sleep over when or what they report -- but I will be interested. That fact alone -- that I'm interested -- puts me in a distinct minority among Catholics, most of whom have little idea who Cardinal Burke is, and even less who the Knights of Malta (or the Knights of Columbus, for that matter) are.
Have a good weekend!
