Archbishop Annibale Bugnini (+1982), the inventor of the Novus Ordo – who wrote the Second Eucharistic prayer in a restaurant – formulated in 1976 four conditions for allowing Archbishop Lefebvre and other Catholics to continue celebrating the Roman Mass.
These conditions are listed on page 180 in a Bugnini biography published 2018 by French historian Yves Chirion:
1. A declaration that the Novus Ordo is not heretical or Protestant, and that those who composed and approved it are not heretics and Protestants.
2. The order of Mass may be that of the 1962 Missal but the readings are to be pronounced according to the new, in the vernacular, and from an ambo facing the people.
3. The Roman Mass shall be celebrated in specifically determined churches and on a fixed schedule for those groups who have difficulty in adapting to the Novus Ordo.
4. The implementation of these dispositions is to be entrusted to the local Ordinary.
Bugnini’s conditions were enforced by Cardinal Bergoglio in Buenos Aires in disobedience to Summorum Pontificum. They are now - identically - contained in Traditionis custodes.

Was TC written on a napkin for old times’ sake?
Those who approved the Novus Ordo are Heretics and Protestants. I believe Protestnts were given input into the process of formulating the Novus Ordo as they were in the deliberations of Vaticn II.
