Opus Dei was therefore able to control the process and prevent those opposed to Escriva from testifying against him.

Even if this was true, we have the dogmatic fact of St. Josemaria's canonization to prove that these witnesses were either lying or sadly mistaken.

I want to see the evidence that the so-called "devil's advocate" was an official of the Roman Curia from ~1000-1500.

What are you saying here? "Dogmatic fact of St. Josemaria's canonization"?

Canonizations are not dogmatic facts. Revelation closed with the death of John.

The communion of saints is a dogmatic fact. It is a pious belief, not a dogmatic fact that individual canonizations under the old format are infallible.
