Ah pashuta sevurah doesn’t need a source.

Agreed. Problem is, I don’t agree with the svara.

But besides, if it’s so pashut, then why do the Bach and the Chida both issue a blanket heter regarding a ba’al tefilah using non Jewish music? And why doesn’t Rashi explain the Gemara about Acher that way, if it’s such an obvious svarah?
