“They don’t have unbroken Apostolic succession, and it doesn’t seem to bother them.”
I’ve had a few high-type Anglicans on FR tell me that they consider that they do, whether Catholics or Orthodox buy it or not. So as far as I know it probably matters to some conservative-type Anglicans. I would hazard that’s why at least some don’t wan’t the bishopess thing even over the priestess thing, it would end the line(as they understand it) if a few generations of male bishops happen to only priestessfy/bishopfy women.

That's a concept from the Costanza school of reasoning: It's not a lie if you believe it.
