> and [nowadays] all of Eretz Yisrael is an easy day's drive to Y-m?  »

In the good old days there were 2 classes of YT observance

YT Rishon only - within the perimeter of "maqom shemaggim sham hashluchim"
And outisde that perimeter where 2 days were observed

Given today's comunications the entire world is notifiable virtually
instantly. [Exempt RH because on YT internet or phone is probably not
shayyach]

So maqqom magiim is really now the entire world including our Golah

So - except for RH -
Since the gzeira-taqqana is no longer applicable
Therefore why observe 2 days of YT nowadays in the golah?
