Yes, but historically Catholics and Protestants didn’t get along. When one obtained power, they used it to club the other one. It’s interesting that they’ve achieved this weird power-sharing agreement here that so obviously favors the doctrine of the smaller side. It’s as if they have no problem setting aside their doctrinal differences if the end goal is subjugating women, and have agreed the Catholic approach is better for that.
