I think the situation with Zika might cause the Vatican to add a couple of caveats to whatever document is coming out on the synod, and there will be some leeway in the Francisco era for a more nuanced approach to the contraception question.

I think the message will be that whatever you as married Catholics decide to do, we will walk with you, that we'll encourage you to follow the church's precepts, but when you don't, we will still love and accept you.
