Neville, kabalas hamitzvos is integral to gerus. Knowledge of them isn’t. Eliezer melamed said you could be megayer people who expressed that they have no plans to keep most of the mitzvos, or even believing in the Torah, save for maybe fasting on yom kippur, not eating chazir….like a masorti israeli.
The fact that anything besides torah can make someoke jewish and that his yardstick is a secular jewish state, shows how ingrained nationalism is in his mind, that the state dictates what a jew is! That is disqualifying. And feldheim stopped selling his books after he came out with thus psak.
