This "fiat" business is really becoming tiresome. They just love slapping a halo on Mary and Joseph and calling them the Holy Family. A teenager with an unwanted pregnancy, a husband who fully intends to divorce her and would have done so had an angel not intervened - a facility ordinary mortals don't have access to. Migrants with a death penalty issued against their child. But these hierarchs airbrush out all the mess and opt for empty, pious sentimentality. They ignore the very things which actually 'connect' these stories to real human lives. 
They dress like the three kings, not the shepherds. We shouldn't be surprised that they act like kings too. This lot are becoming more and more exposed under Francis.
