[Avodah] tachanun

[Eli Turkel]

I have trouble understanding the days that tachanun is not said.
On one hand we dont say in the house of a mourner OTOH we don't say it when
a chatan is in shul (note the difference between a mourner and a groom)

R. Amram Gaon brings that the cistom in the 2 yeshivot was to say tachanun
on Purim because it is a day of miracles and so we pray for the future. The
Tur brings R. Amram Gaon and notes that the custom is not to say Tachanun.

What is the argument? R. Amram Gaon implies that it is especially important
to say Tachanun on Purim as a prayer while we don't say tachanun because it
is a day of  simchah, is there something deeper?. We then go the extra step
and don't say tachanun all of the month of Nissan and Tishre after YK.
