Vatican II said mass shouls be said in Latin.
As a dead language it prevents priests making up thijngs as they go along.
So who out there would go regularly to a Tridentine Mass if such was available in their own parish ?

I personally would prefer the Tridentine Rite with frequent use of the vernacular. The Tridentine Rite enshrined the glory of Catholic doctrine into the liturgy and since its suppression we have seen many heterodox ways of thinking that have would not be so widely accepted if the Tridentine Rite was still in regular use, since the heterodox theology is so incompatible with the Tridentine Rite. However the Tridentine Rite was in no way a perfect guard against heterodoxy, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and other modernists celebrated the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass using the Tridentine Rite daily. Although I wish the Tridentine Rite would be made more regular, I in no way question the validity of the Pauline Rite.

I do attend a Tridentine mass, but wish it were more available in other churches.
The neatest thing is sitting at home on Christmas Eve and listening to the Pope on t.v., celebrate the mass in latin. I know exactly what he's saying and how to respond. I know that seems like an odd thing, but when my family traveled to Rome this past year they said it was neat to be thousands of miles from home, in a country that speaks little english, and yet still hear the mass in a language they could understand. Especially when it is the Pope who is celebrating it. It gives you a sense of the church being truely universal.
And it doesn't hurt that the Tridentine Mass is a very beautiful, reverent and quiet mass. It offers lots of quiet time for prayers and meditation. It's a nice option for the faithful to have.

Vaticcan II did not say should.
For the sake of some people attached to the Tridentine Mass, near the end of the 1980’s the Holy See allowed the bishops to permit the use of the Tridentine Rite under certain conditions. Among those conditions were that celebrants would follow the latest edition of the old Roman Missal published in 1962.
Also, those who petition for this permission must have no ties with groups that call into doubt the lawfulness and doctrinal soundness of the form of Mass approved by Pope Paul VI in 1969.
