There would still be minhag,  but one could  decide not to follow 
some of the minhagim of one's parents,  which, of course, one can do anyway.

If your father stood for kiddush and you decide based on Tosafos that 
you want to sit, do you have to be mater Nedar for this?  I think not.

The advent of Chassidus led to changing many minhagim,  such as 
davening Nusach Ashkenaz.  Do you think that people were mater Nedar 
at the time?  I think not.  I think they just began to follow the 
changes that Chassidism introduced.
