I guess the rabbonim 100 years ago had a Vatican Council and repealed parts of the Shulchan Aruch. I’m not aware of someone being declared a mamzer or any number of other types of halacha l’maaisa situations; so if I’m not aware of it “obviously” it never happened and the halacha became rusty and inapplicable. Otherwise when it happened the person who followed it would’ve made a klap on the bima to announce he followed it and it would’ve been reported in the Hamodia.
