“The reason why people care is because “no man is an island” People mix with each other and Gebroach eaters and non-gebroach eaters will usually mix in some form either a family event. Shopping at the same store etc.
You are forced to pay more as the store for example needs to only stock non-gebraoch items which can cost more making it more difficult for people who dont observe to celebrate Peseach”
I’m sorry, but it’s simply ridiculous to expect people to give up their family minhag for such a far-fetched reason.
Do you believe that it is wrong for people to be vegetarians since “The reason why people care is because “no man is an island” People mix with each other and vegetarians and non-vegetarians eaters will usually mix in some form either a family event. Shopping at the same store etc. You are forced to pay more as the store for example needs to only stock vegetarian items which can cost more making it more difficult for people who are out of shape to become healthy”?

“Those who hold by a chumrah typically tend to see themselves as more frum than those who don’t.”
Such sweeping generalizations seem to prove the point that the negativity may indeed be in the mind of the meikeil. Contrary to all-too-popular opinion, being dan li’kaf zechus applies to those who are more machmir than you just as much as it applies to any other Jew.
