I think that touches on another aspect of the ideological conflict.
The hermanutics aspect is one that's something of a sticking point for the religious conservatives, and to be honest, I think their frustration with that is somewhat understandable.
Whenever that concept is invoked, almost without fail, it's almost always from a progressive-leaning academic perspective that has the predictable conclusion of "and here's why all of the things that align with my preferences are applicable, but all the things that the other team wants aren't meant to be taken literally or no longer apply"
And it's typically received as condescension.
"We don't believe your book is real, but for those of you who do believe it, we are going to tell you the correct way to believe in it... Which, as luck would have it, aligns with our political ideology"
Or, in a practical phrasing:
"Here's why all of the verses that would support welcoming migrants and giving money to the poor are still valid, but all that stuff it says about gays and women doesn't apply anymore"
