Because the pope is the legitimate successor to st Peter, and he is the vicar of Christ. Being a bishop and denying the pope's legitimate authority publicly is a huge sin akin to denying the entirety of your faith.
Vigano is essentially rejecting Christianity and is self excommunicating. The process here is to add legitimacy so theres less chance of schism.
If vigano wants to help the church and the world then he should be fighting the evils in the world and not denying his faith.
And it cracks me up that atheists and protestants are so invested in this process when they deny the entirety of it. It's almost like you guys just can't escape the fact that God exists and this is his church. You're drawn to it whether you acknowledge it or not

The whole obviously being a heretic thing, and advocating satanic postmodernist bullshit, invalidates that whole "legitimate" line of reasoning.
