Isn’t it just easier to say that 1900s-progressivism and 1960s-progressivism are different but related movements?

The difference isn’t any greater than between 2010s Anglicanism and 1950s Anglicanism, I don’t often hear this argument related to them. But leaving this aside for now, one movement is quite clearly descended from the other, both in the affiliations of key individuals who connect both down to the chains of cited literature.
First, I’m not familiar enough with Anglicanism to agree or disagree with your assertion. For example, I don’t think the statement is accurate about Reform Judaism.
Second, even if current Anglicans take the inside view to assert that they are the same as past Anglican, that doesn’t require that we who are taking the outside view must agree with that assessment.
