The Gra was maqpid to have Purim se'udah in the morning. This way, he
would be sure to be sober and ready to learn the moment Purim ended.

Not that his violation of a minhag proves much for the rest of us...

What I don't understand is why you're asking, given that the Rama
bothers to quote the Terumas haDeshen telling you it's okay.

Tir'u baTov!
