He's politically pretty leftist (although not to the degree that Francis was and he's certainly more lowkey about it), but liturgically he's definitely trad. Imo he was chosen as the best of both worlds to appease the left and right of the church while being American and Peruvian allows him to combat the most pressing issues facing catholics in LATAM where we're struggling to beat out protestants and in America where he provides a beacon for US catholics to emulate in a critical moment where the USCCB is beginning to lean too much into its disagreements with Rome. Also him saying this at his first ever homily was very fucking based for an American.
