Popa, my father does make early shabbos as well, actually.
DY, I realise you’re trying to mediate here, but actually I wasn’t questioning how popa can’t make early shabbos; this whole tangent started because popa was expressing his annoyance at being invited out to families who make early shabbos (and early shabbos in general), and I was trying to explain why some people do make early shabbos.
