[Avodah] Eating Two Kezeisim of Matza for Motzi-Matza

<No, it's got nothing to do with that; the question is which matzah
the "al achilat matzah" is on.  Is it on the prusah over which the
hagadah was said, or is it on the shlema...>

     R. Micha Berger commented:

<To which I would still add that this chiluq only exists if you separate mishneh lechem from lechem oni. And thus, shouldn't apply to those who only use two matzos.>

     And RZS added:

<Right.  Since the sevara of two matzos is that on this night the
prusa is as chashuv as a shleima.>

     Not according to the Gr"a.  According to him, the shleima is for motzi, and the p'rusa for the mitzva of matza.  He eliminates a third matza because l'shitaso, Yom Tov does not require lechem mishne.  Thus, at a non-seder Yom Tov meal he used only one matza.  Conversely, at a Friday night seder, he used three.
