I do think it will change things, since it will rightly be seen by the hard right, political and religious, as a signal that the Catholic church under this pope's leadership, at least, is not aligned with their politics. It's a long overdue development and does not address the problem that official Catholic teaching from John Paul II and Benedict XVI targets LGBTQ people in a cruel and, as many of us have come to conclude, erroneous way. I have experience the cruelty first-hand, as you say.
