ex cathedra literally means "out [from] the chair" but it's a figurative statement that just means "speaking as the holder of this position rather than as a private individual"

This phrase in Latin is still commonly used in Poland in exactly this meaning.

"official acts" by a president vs personal acts

Wait so a cathedral is just a church with a big chair for like official church statements?

Cathedrals are named for having such chairs, yes.
