They're still conforming to the parameters of Hazal.
As far as I'm concerned the fact that as per Tosafos this is a single
p'rat that is gender specific is still notwithstanding

Truly optional means conformity is unnecessary. Here it means that a
quibble is required due to a 2ndary issue of sh'vus.

Regardless, this is a strawman.

I quoted BY quoting the Ran. I'm not sure that Ran's take is identical
to Tosafos or deviates as per Raava"d. At any rate Somchos Reshus
implies performing a mitzvah so as to fulfill an obligation that iis
not a requirement which is to Sephardim oxymoronic

So to Ashkenazim it's not because they are complying to halachic
strictures - see my point from sh'qalim

The fact that the strictures may vary due to ezternal reasons
(viz. Sh'vus) is at most a quibble or aisi kind of a red herring.

So women are told to press down gently. OK so if fails that criteria
of really baring down, but all other criteria [the kind of animal, the
timing the location] still require halachic cofrmity. EG does Reshus
imply in her house? While t'mei'ah? After shechita? I think not.
