Which fact are you not sure of:

1- That until a couple of decades before the teshuvah people did not
count kneading time toward the kedei hilukh mil, and then people (at
least around Easter Europe) did?

2- That rushing the kneading because it now has to fit within the mil
along with baking time would increase the chance that there was unkneaded
flour on or in the matzah?

3- That the Baal haTanya is brighter than you, and should be
second-guessed with care? Even if someone known to be brilliant makes
a mistake, you know it's not likely to be a trivial one.

4- Or, the original topic.... That I would find it unlikely that RMF
would consider a minhag endorsed by the SA haRav should be dropped
without very strong motive?

Tir'u baTov!
