For the Sacred Heart Major Seminary Detroit Vatican Council II is not exclusivist or traditional as it is for me.

For me Vatican Council II is a legitimate, dogmatic, pastoral, exclusivist and traditional Council  but for the Rector and faculty at the Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Detroit it is a legitimate, pastoral, non exclusivist and non traditional Council.Since it is a rupture with the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the Syllabus of Errors for them.
The turning point, the parting of ways can be seen at LG 16. For them being saved in invincible ignorance(LG 16) refers to a visible person.Since for them  LG 16 is an exception to EENS they infer there is a visible person. An invisible person cannot be an exception.
For them LG 16 refers to a known person saved outside the Church for me it is an unknown person.
For them this known person is an exception to all needing to be members of the Catholic Church to avoid the fires of Hell.(Cantate Domino, Council of Florence 1441).For me an unknown person cannot be an exception.
For them LG 16 visible contradicts AG 7 which says all need faith and baptism for salvation.Since there is known salvation outside the Church for them Vatican Council II is not exclusivist.It is not traditional.For me LG 16 does not contradict AG 7.
For me outside the Church there is no salvation and so Vatican Council II is exclusivist ( AG 7,LG 14).It is traditional and in harmony  with EENS upon which depends the old ecclesiology of the Catholic Church.So with the old ecclesiology intact there can only be an ecumenism of return and the formal conversion of non Catholics into the Church for salvation.
Since there is no salvation outside the Church the priority for saving souls is the proclamation of the Social Reign of Christ the King over all political legislation and the non separation of Church and State.
For them since there is known salvation outside the Church they have the new ecumenism and the Anonymous Christian theory.Instead of all needing to formally enter the Church for salvation it is all who are saved are saved through Jesus and the Church(CCC 846 New Theology).They can hope for the salvation of most people  since BOD, BOB and I.I  refer to known cases saved outside the Church.This can also be augmented by AG 11 ( seeds of the Word), LG 8(elements of sanctification and truth...),UR 3( imperfect communion with the Church) etc.
 There is no need for the non separation of Church and State or the proclamation of the Social Reign of Christ the King since invisible cases of BOD, BOB and I.I ( augmented by AG 11, LG 8, UR 3 etc) our visible exceptions  to the dogma EENS. So the Syllabus of Errors and EENS has been made redundant.
This is the new theology based on invisible for us BOD, BOB, I.I etc being visible for us exceptions to the dogma EENS.
They have done away with the dogma EENS but uphold the dogma of the Immaculate Conception of Our Lady.
