The case in Zevachim under discussion would seem to be the latter
(eliminating extraneous dinim) . The Mishna is stating a principle that
blood that falls on the floor can be collected and still be kosher. The
ukimta simply eliminates other extraneous dinim such as holacha without
walking from the equation. It would seem to be a perfect example to apply
R' Michel Avraham's thesis and yet the Gemara rejects the ukimta as being
unreasonable
