We simply say that there are no practical examples of the baptism of desire. So it is not an exception to the dogma EENS(extra ecclesiam nulla salus).
The baptism of desire could be accepted as a theoretical argument but it has to be clarified that for  you and me there are no objective cases of the baptism of desire. So there are no  practical examples of salvation outside the Catholic Church.

Once this is clear we can see that LG 8, LG 14, LG 16 etc are also not practical exceptions to EENS.
Vatican Council II can be accepted in harmony with the strict interpretation of EENS and the ' Vatican II sect', can be asked to do the same.-Lionel Andrades
