CE Forum: Should the Church Proclaim a Fifth Marian Doctrine?

Mary statueIt’s time for a “Solemnity of the Assumption”-themed Catholic Exchange Forum!

You know the guidelines (which in fact apply to all comments at CE):

-keep it as short and streamlined as possible

-keep it on the subject

-no vulgarity

-be respectful of other people’s human dignity

The question for this week is:

The Catholic Church has four official Marian Doctrines (Mother of God, Ever Virgin, Immaculate Conception, and the Assumption). It has been suggested that a fifth one (Co-Redemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate) has always been implicit in Catholic belief and ought to be officially proclaimed. Agree? Disagree? Why or why not?
