We are in agreement that WTS decision was not a "private matter".

We disagree as to whether independent WTS has the legitimate authority to determine orthodoxy (what is confessional and what is not), and base faculty decisions on such independent determinations.

I’m still waiting for any argument on the nature of independent authority in the matter of confessional determination.

That is the distinction with a difference, IMO.
Of course WTS has authority. They pay the money. We are not talking about civil servants here.
