Very fine article. For some time now I've felt that the the late Dr. Robert Crouse and the Maritime Canadian school of Prayer Book Anglicanism which he fostered is the best modern expression of what your'e driving at.
Are you familiar with the Solemn Declaration of 1893?
The "High Church/Low Church-evangelical" distinction did not arise until the 19th century within the Church of England (after dissenting tradition diverged from the CoE). Peter Nockles research has suggested this. Attempts to make the CoE "reformed" in the 16th century seems to underestimate how "reformed" was associated with John Knox and Calvin's Geneva.
Is the justice of Christ only the meritorious cause of our justification, or is it the firmal cause? Even Roman Catholics will say that Christ is the sole meritorious cause.
" “High Church” seems to be generally a good answer, but it may be a bit broad." Pun intended? :)

The formal cause is remission of sin. I can dm you if you want more on this.
The formal cause isn't the righteousness of Christ?
Sure, DM me.
