i obv didn't explain it well but the biggest difference is reactionary vs. proactive censor, "publish anything you like but we'll come after you if it makes a stir" vs. the modern pre-approval that people think when they hear 'censorship'
which is mostly a function of state capacity anyway. the catholic church would've liked to stop everyone writing before the pope looked at it but parrallel state-creation was a hard and long process.
just don't want people thinking the catholic church was medieval 1984, not in any way a good institution
