Late yesterday, I remembered that I'd once heard another Jesuit -- an ordinary one, visiting our parish for a mission -- ask the people to pray for him before he started speaking to us. He said we were to "ask the Holy Spirit to zap me" or something like that.
So it may be a habit of their Society. Not that that'll excuse the Pope to the kind of people who think he's unduly humble (unduly humble?). It'll just condemn the rest of the SJ's for them, if something hasn't already. "See? the whole order's like that!"
