I find that hard to believe, since they hold by Rabbeinu Tam and even
beyond that they are willing to be meiqil for Amidah -- so why not
tachanun too.

BTW, the Satmar Rav held that while he davened after zeman, he rebuked a
chassid for scheduling a minyan and beris after zeman. Why? Because when
the SR davened after zeman, he did so because he was preparing kavanos
already when it was still zeman. But for the hamon am, they lack this
notion that davening really started well before the first word.
