“Well as a purely practical matter the choices are coming down to: Married Priests or Women Priests or No Priests”

There are two others choices:

Traditional Religious Orders (all of which are overflowing with vocations).

Priests from overseas.

The real answer is orthodoxy. People forget that vocations fell through the floor in early 16th century Europe because of the Protestant Revolution. Then the Church entered one of its greatest eras in terms of vocations.
