Are you arguing that the CC's "eis la'asos" includes mayim acharonim?

(Which I still don't think is a technical "eis la'asos". The CC also
argues that the original rule of teaching only what they need to lead
observant lives is extended beyond learning halakhah lemaaseh and the
basics by the realia of their receiving a secular education. That's enough
to justify the change without saying that observance of the whole trumps
a single issur.)
