What he repeated was a story about someone making an exception to
their minhag. The explanation as to why the minhag was needed isn't
given as part of the story.

And if the CA puts the story into writing and uses in halachic argument,
he obviously thought it was more than mere rumor.

Still, not his own position, not even something he advised in theory,
even before ein hatzibur yakhol laamod bah considerations.
