I do not agree with your interpretation, but remember this: Primal casters are people who have effectively 'sold their souls' (or made some other arcane deal or worship) to powerful creatures such as nature spirits and elder elementals. This means--by my interpretation--that the Primal caster really cannot both honour their patron being and Saluwe' properly to be considered a divine casters/priest. Because the Primal caster honours their patron first, they would effectively be guilty of worshiping non-deity powers, which would mark them as heretics. While the druids themselves may be officially accepted as a worship of Saluwe', if those druids used recognizably primal spells, their protection would probably evaporate as they provably are honouring a power which is not Saluwe'.
This is, of course, a distinction up to Henry.
What interpretation? That druids are allowed in the church as part of the cannon material you quoted and wrote into a module, or that Hnery recommended that a druid might best be written up as a primal caster? Beyond that I'm not applying any interpretation, I'm asking after the implication of those two statements.
I've always wondered if the deals a primal caster makes costs them their souls. Whether it really means a primal sells it all for power, or whether it is possible to make a reasonable deal. I know the church says the deals are evil and will cost them, but we know the church isn't always right. - but its not always wrong either...
