hereorthere, our minhag is not to be makpid what time we eat the afikomin, although I’m so tired my chatzos, I definitely would like my husband to be makpid on eating the afikomin before chatzos, but he is still in middle of discussing yetzias Mitzrayim by chatzos, as per his minhug.
Your saying “This change was already IN the origional Halacha, because the Halacha states that a man may have ONLY as many wives as he can take care of to their satisfaction (not an exact quote but the basic halacha as I understand it).” I’m not saying that the change cannot already be in halacha. Maybe if halacha is learnt correctly there can be found all the changes of how we live halacha in the original halacha. But the metzias is that this halacha is lived differently today.
Kasha you write”Incorrect. It is possible the majority practices a certain halacha incorrectly”
Nu go ahead. Take any of my examples and explain how you live them differently, according to your ideal of how halacha is supposed to be practiced. Buy a slave, take two wives, force your wife to wash your feet, whatever. The main thing is that you are the one that is a faithful servant of Hashem.
