I think he should mandate these changes, but first he should mandate studies for all of the priests in the Church - one year of liturgical Latin



Well, part of your suggestions have already been implemented.

Canon 249 of the 1983 Code:
The program for priestly formation is to make provision that the students are not only carefully taught their native language but also that they are well skilled in the Latin language.

Now if we could just open your suggested McDonalds to employ Bishops that can't obey Church law. It would give cafeteria Catholics a place to go.

To be studied in Rome. There is nothing like drinking at the source. Those new priests will be hooked on Latinity for life.
