People have been conditioned to see LG 8 etc as exceptions.

They have been conditioned to see LG 8 etc as objective people, known and visible. But there are no such cases.

The conditioning has come from the Letter of the Holy Office 1949(LOHO). The liberal theologians assumed the baptism of desire(BOD), baptism of blood(BOB) and being saved in invincible ignorance (I.I) were exceptions to EENS when they really should have said that they are not exceptions to EENS.

People have been conditioned to see BOD, BOB and I.I as exceptions.
