I am very interested in what you have to say. My first read, as a layperson not trained in canon law, was that they have a pretty good point but that as the investigation they're asking for doesn't seem to enable any action, it's more of a (mostly) good roundup of bad stuff.
If popes could be prosecuted for NEGLIGENCE in office (c. 1389), which they can’t be, the Easter Week Open Letter would serve as solid indictment. As a brief for HERESY (cc. 751, 1364)—which is, indirectly but seriously, sustainable against popes—it’s less compelling. More later.

save it..... ANYTHING DATED 1389 would seem to REEK of the ENVY/LUST/GREED for the Power of God... this has been an ONGOING corruption in the Church since the beginning..we are only NOW experiencing its PUTRIDNESS.

Dr. Peters is referring to canons (Canon law) not dates, with the numbers. (Though I can empathize with your point!)

I don't think there's really a question that he's pushing contradictions of divine revelation. But we've had nearly a century of weaponized ambiguity in the Church. Almost nobody enforces even things like canon 915. It's almost "Yeah, he's a heretic, but so what?"

Also, it occurs to me that Honorius was condemned specifically for negligence.

No it's not simply negligence. He has signed his name to documents which contain statements which appear to contradict dogma. As you know, heretics generally will not openly admit their heresy, but are convicted by both their words and confirming actions.
