I understand your explanation

But was it necessary to have a hukamnama about it, as did happen. In fact someone was actually excommunicated over here for failing to throw out all the chairs and tables, continuing with them, instead of making everyone sit on the floor.

That is wasteful also. The sangat had to pay for the tables and chairs at some point.
