Now, if you please, would you care citing a Doctor or Father of the Church who shared this characteristicly neoCatholic disposition?

Maybe you ought to define what you mean by extrinsic tradition. I take it to mean trappings, and customs, and the like which have no real bearing on doctrine.

What do you take it to mean?

That, as well as disciplines, liturgical practices, language style, theological methods, etc. In other words, any tradition, sanctioned by Rome, that is not per se irreformable.
