You are defacto denigrating real Halacha and the topic as mentioned in Pirkei Avos of our obligation to “assu syag laTorah” to make a fence around the Halchos so we do not violate them.
Chumra Creep causes loss of respect for real geniune Halacha based valid chumros. Only by pointing out what is a valid chumra and what is not can we keep what Chazal require from us.
