Thank you, Sisters. While M. Williams can't comprehend that Burke and the KoM are not of much importance and that this was a "power play" by the pope on the "sovereign nature" of the KofM are equally true, you totally grasp the significance of the pope's action. Add to his direct interference in the KofM and (only) women's monastic orders like the Benedictines, (https://www.ncronline.org/news/vatican/francis-mandates-wide-changes-contemplative-women-religious-requests-revision-all)  also, in October "the Loretto sisters were summoned to Rome to explain alleged 'ambiguity' in the order’s adherence to Church teaching and its way of living religious life although the order’s visitation was formally closed in 2014."(www.lastampa.it/2016/06/10/vaticaninsider)
