one hardly needs the chasam sofer to know that lag ba’omer is not a yom tov. Of course, chazal used the term loosely, mentioning occasionally that when something good happened “וחכמים עשו אותו יום טוב”
obviously these yom tov days are simply happy days where one enjoys some wine and a good meal ( ועושים בו קצת משתה ושמחה) and have no connection to keduhas yom tov. Other examples are isru chag,and purim katan
