If they really sincerely follow 95% of Halacha, I think I can honestly be mochel them even though they’re wrong.

To the contrary, movements which are very similar to Judaism are the most dangerous because people have a hard time distinguishing. This is why it is said that chazal were very happy when christianity stopped keeping mitzvos. And why I will be very happy when Open Orthodoxy stops keeping all mitzvos.

And Comparing them to heterodox movements is just wrong, as you admit.

No, I do not admit that. If a person keeps even 100% of the mitzvos, but believes that halacha is not incumbent on him, he is just as bad as someone who keeps nothing.

These apikorsim think that halacha is not incumbent on them, and that they can change for reasons that are not allowed. They’re right in the same camp with Conservative, Reform, Reconstructionist, Baptist, Catholic, Russian Orthodox, Moslem, Hindu, Zoroastrian, Niviei HaBaal, etc.
