Zaidy 78,
You are not a sheigetz for not knowing of the reason people have the minhag of braiding with six or using 12 challos.
Lechem Mishnah, which is based on how the mon fell, is Halacha. This is a minhag that coincides with the Halacha and seeks to bring the zechus and Brocha of the Lechem hapanim to the Shabbos table.
However you may be a sheigetz based on your disdain of a beautiful minhag. Perhaps the problem is that you are lacking in the understanding and appreciation of other people and their minhagim. Particularly when they are focusing on infusing the mundane with something sublime.
And it is not just a little ga’avah on your behalf and Wolf’s as well that you feel that only what you do is correct, any who does more is crazy. Every time someone mentions a minhag or Halacha that the certain people are unaware of or decide to ignore you know who gets their knickers ion a twist and they express their horror and disdain. It would seem that they are about to have a rupture. It is easier to let people be and it actually be satisfying to learn something.
People who understand the reason behind braiding were kind enough to share a reason for that minhag. They are not forcing you or Wolf to do so. I doubt they will ever be at your table for you to even be concerned that your sensibilities would be so offended ( and seeing how you are so dismissive of others hanhagos, it is not surprising that they would forgo just such a “pleasure”).
