popa-

I don’t see how you are disagreeing with anything I said. I’m fine with people doing it themselves, as I specifically wrote: “It would certainly be an extra nice thing if someone would have mayim acharonim brought to the table for the guests even though it’s not his own minhag.” My point was that telling YehudaTzvi that he ought to do that is heading down that slippery slope. If someone wants to be extra nice on their own, beseder, but I think it is wrong to even hint that someone is expected to go that extra mile. At the same time, I think it IS expected of him to allow them to use his sink, and it would be nice of him to offer. Obviously if someone has a valid chumra it’s no one’s right or business to stop them from keeping it.
