Gaw: On the issue of “Amira l’akum, Sh’vus/d’rabanan”. In actual (as opposed to virtual) “Amira”, there’s a world of difference between Amira l’yisroel and Amira l’akum/ Conditioned on the status of the Yisrael. i.e.: Where one makes an early Shabbos (1 or 2 hours before it is actually Shabbos.). They are allowed to ask of another Jewish person who does not hold that Tosefes Shabbos to do a Melacha for them. (Lechatchila) But where the second party is under the same prohibition, the Amira is just as much forbidden as the actual melacha.(Task.).
