what normative halachik practices, according to that we shouldn’t follow Mishna Brura etc.
[aheimisher to yb]
===
Mishna brura is a step by step text based peirush on Sh A.
whereas VY’M and al hageoula are in depth all encompassing pseudo hlachik sfarim.
No connection between the 2.

When Mahari bei rav wanted to mechadesh smicha , he wrote to many gdolei hador.
Whenever there were thorny aguna she’elot , the relevant rabbanim wrote to many gdolei hador.
When there was a gzerat hashchita in Germany pre WW2 , the relevant rabbanim wrote to many gdolei hador.
When the new invention of electricity made its inroads , the relevant rabbanim wrote to many gdolei hador.
And the list can go on and on.

But when
the newly created medina created manifold millions pikuach nefesh she’lot , then suddenly, one sefer without any haskamot , without any give and take , without any back and forth correspondence suffices ….
THIS DOES NOT LOOK LIKE NORMATIVE HALACHIK PROCESS . Nor was it.
This seems more like a tool for shaping public orthodox opinion.
