You presume that the poseiq can't come to a real birur, and therefore
most rely on the rules of safeiq.

AISI, rules like rov are at the end of the poseiq's arsenal. He should
try to be mevarer the din. If he can't, he's left with a safeiq so we
apply the rules of pesaq.

The question, to my mind, is whether "we are nohagim to be machmir WRT
Pesach" is a valid such rule, and if so, how do we avoid the problem of
ein ladavar sof?

Tir'u baTov!
