I'm assuming you're up to about 9 or 10 days of pesach now with all the upgrades?  :)

You guys act like it's a chumra not to eat these for matzos mitzvah. According to many (most) rishonim you are not yotzeh

This entire back & forth makes no sense. Everyone has tradition when it comes to Pesach. There is no cookie cutter way here

There is minhag and there is halachah. Whether you can use matzo which is not shmura mishaas ktzirah for matzas mitzvah is a halachah question. not a minhag question.

There are many different minhags on how to preform certain halachas

For the record I would use this matza for the sedar

I'm ok with that
I think shmura like many things in our community is an unnecessary chumra

And you've learnt through the sugya with the rishonim to determine that? Or it came from your boich?

Ask your LOR (Local Orthodox Rabbi) for advise on halacha and minhag-
that's why they get paid the big bucks.
Let's try to remember the meaning of Achdus and the practical applications
of how to converse with others on the forums

Side Note-Maybe paying $25+/lb for Shmura is too much for many people

wrong. There are shitos that hold that the only problem is lishmah, in which case its only a problem at the Seder but not the rest of pesach
