Do you think this will have any implications for how the TLM will be handled by Rome in the near future? Seems like the outcome of this will have big ramifications for the TLM crowd as well.

Not directly, but yeah, people are obviously going to be paying attention to what happens here with a certain interest beyond that region of India where the dispute runs hottest.
I don't expect fistfights or the burning of effigies or the like. A lot of American Catholics, for example, will simply march resolutely and (relatively) quietly into schism with the SSPX. But the damage will be done, nevertheless.
Yeah that's my expectation as well. If (and that's a big if at this point) more restrictions are placed on the TLM, then SSPX will likely see a huge influx of people.

So will the Eastern Catholics. That's what happened under the previous round of restrictions.
