Hashem gave us mitzvos to do. Yes, sometimes there’s a p’tur, but it’s not the ideal.

Yet you’re perfectly fine with the svara that when Shulchan Aruch wrote that menorah must be lit outdoors for pirsumei nisa unless it is dangerous, it was actually modifying the mitzvah, and now, in safe times, it is *preferable* and *ideal* to light the menorah indoors, with minimal pirsumei nisa.

This svara makes perfect sense to you.

To me it’s clear that the minhag of Sukkah is the strongest of the three, as I’ve expressed, and you obviously disagree.

I’ll likely be suspected of only thinking this way because I’m biased as a Lubavitcher, but I would similarly suspect that those who strongly oppose this minhag are doing so specifically because it’s Chabad.

[No Yankel, I’m not “playing victim.” I’m just stating the facts as I see them. You can’t call me “biased” to my beliefs (whatever that even means) without me suspecting the same of you.]
