Clarification:
I was only aware that some Sephardim omit it, so I stated what I knew to be
true. And I skirted the issue because I have no idea if ANY Sepharadim do
say it.

But "Nusach Ari"  and "Nusach Sepharad" include it and I did not know that
they too are consider Ashkenazic siddurim.

Hypothetically speaking, if an Ashkneazic shul were to start omitting "yekum
purkan" [lets' say due to ts babashos] would this change be LESS problematic
because many communities omit it already - or would it not make a
difference?
