As soon as one adds anything to faith alone in Christ alone it voids the faith in Him. Scripture providing us His Word is sufficient for all good works in the life of every believer in God’s Plan.

Don't you see the irony in what you said, Faith in CHRIST (aka The WORD) alone is good, faith in ONLY the WRITTEN Word is limiting Christ as it voids the Faith in Him.

The doctrine I see to attack is the doctrine of putting Scripture (one aspect of The WOrd) above the entire WORD of God (Christ).

SOLA Scriptura is just plain wrong for that reason -- it seeks to limit God.

God Himself has placed a limit on what He reveals to us.

Tradition is never said to be God breathed. Scripture is GOD Breathed (theopneustos), tradition is certainly NOT.

Psalm 138:2 I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word.

1 Cor 4:6 Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that in us you may learn not to exceed what is written, so that no one of you will become arrogant in behalf of one against the other.

Isaiah 55:7 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," declares the LORD. 9"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts.
