AISI once seforim started being printed texts replaced TSBP.
Example a young Yekke goes tot yeshiva and he notes that the Mishna Brura
pasken lehisateif betzitzis with a sheva.  But the minhag at KAJ/Breuer's
is  with a patach.

So his position is: why doesn't Breuer's conform with the MB?

Several hundred years ago the converse probably would have happened.  A
talmid steeped in mimetics would have asked, how come this Sefer is knegged
our firm Minhag.  I guess this returns us to issues of Rupture and
Reconstruction.

The other tangent is, so if Yeshiva X can follow the GRA and yeshiva Y can
follow the MB why can't simply one follow the Rema? or Kitzur? &c.

So why can't one take [e.g.] The Magen Avraham as his poseik and ask
she'eilos ONLY in ares not covered?  [FWIW SA harav defaults to Magen
Avraham.

And according to Wikipedia, the Taz was ratified by the va'ad of 4 lands..
