local practice is not to)?

intervention at time of event)?

Me:
In all those cases, in our shul, local minhag trumps the wishes of the
guest, though we won't jump at anyone for adding vekooraiv mesheechay or
werewa'h weassalah.

Sometimes the reading of one's own aliya may be tolerated.

When I was an avel, I mostly davvened in shuls that did not adhere to my
minhag (though I layer "converted" to one of those other minhaggim), and as
shaliach tzibbur, always followed their respective minhaggim.
