I agree with your assessment completely. Thanks for the link – good article. One correction, however: his father was Antiochian Orthodox, but (as so often happens), he fell in love with a Catholic girl. The rule at the time was: marry a Catholic and you MUST raise the children as Catholics. This was, in fact, how he was raised.
I know whereof I speak. Of my four grandparents, three were protestant, one was Catholic. In short, the result was: all Catholic grandchildren.
So, clearly, Catholicism was the “dominant gene” 😆 – or (as was actually the case), really, really good Church discipline.
