All this is a New Discovery in the Catholic Church
even though I really am not saying anything new. It is new, since it was unknown
in 1965. But the reasoning existed before 1965.
Before 1949 they did not project the baptism of desire
as being a physically visible case. This was common sense. It always referred
to an invisible person. So when the popes over history mention the strict
interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and also the baptism of
desire, there is no contradiction.
But this is the NEW DISCOVERY today. Invisible cases
of LG 16 etc do not contradict Tradition. It is new for the main line Church
and the traditionalists. –Lionel Andrades
