No no, i don't mean that bishops are appointed by the king. I mean that the bishops, whose appointment is a matter for (of?) the church, ought to be considered regular subjects of the crown.
That is the difference between Gallicism, or the unity of church and state during the time of king Clovis (Chlodwig), and later times under Papism etc.
These are not my original thoughts, i got this position from here but it needs translation. I do concur with it: https://www.deutsch-orthodox.de/kleine-geschichte-des-orthodoxen-frankreichs/
I'd say this falls firmly under "God's to God, Caesar's to Caesar". The church shouldn't solely and authoratively play king-maker and the state or crown shouldn't groom and install clergy.
