I did not follow this thread, so I can only hope I am not repeating
something that has already been told.  I just would like to point out
tht St. Paul distinguishes several times between "it is our Lord Jesus
Christ and not me, who is telling this to you", and "I am telling this
to you."

 Therefore we must always carefully examinate if St Paul is
transmitting one of o our Lord's command or pronouncing his own
command based on his own authority. The second one is less binding I
guess. At least, someone in an authority position similar to that of
to St. Paul should surely be able to change it. (Sorry for this
tipically Catholic remark ;-)
