But it does point out that modern-day polygamy is honored in the proxy temple marriages. Which I suppose is a sign that the church is not willing to say that polygamy of yore was a non-doctrinal mistake.

Nor could it in my opinion. If you throw out D&C, I'm not sure you have a Joseph Smith after that.
Individual members submit names and the work gets done. That doesn't mean the church accepts what they were doing while they were alive. I understand how that could be hard for the non-LDS world to understand.
