Other than the fact that I don't know if this concept is supposed to be
taken literally, in its pure sense do we have to say that it also applies
to:
a) People doing a Hechsher Mitzvah like building a Sukkah
b) People doing a mitzvah with more hidur than is required (more than 51%
schach)

He isn't benching Gomel as a Choleh who recovered. Rather, he is Benching on
having survived a potentially tragic situation. It doesn't seem to me that
the statements of the SA or MB apply here.
