Joe, the Gemara says (Baba Basra 110a): ‘hanosay isha tzorich she’yivdok b’achiha’, there is no machlokes about it, yet it is not brought down as a halacha – not in Rambam or Tur or Shulchan Oruch?!
Answers in SHU”T Maharam Brisk s. 130 – the gemorah is not saying a halacha but an eitza tova (shidduch advice).
Therefore, even though the Avos kept the entire Torah including all halochos, this was never a halacha, and the Avos didn’t need to follow it.
