"If validity is all that mattered, the Church wouldn't bother with all these other instructions, and it certainly wouldn't have rewritten the liturgy at a massive cost to unity, tradition, and pastoral peace."

The idea that the Latin Mass and Novus Ordo are "equal" simply because both are valid collapses liturgy into its bare minimum. The Church repeatedly teaches that validity is only the floor, not the measure of excellence. If validity were all that mattered, the Church would never have issued extensive liturgical norms, nor undertaken the most disruptive liturgical reform in its history. Honest evaluation is therefore not judgmentalism but necessary for genuine reform and unity.
