Spirituality is a combination sraddhaa nishtaa bhkthi dharma aachaara - all these involve absolute discipline- where deviations from the path already shown by elders are not possible unless under exceptional circumstances.
And like the judicial dictum-(Fīat jūstitia ruat cælum) may justice be done even if the heavens fall-rules have to be followed without exception even under the worst circumstances.
Physical pleasure and comforts are not a priority consideration at all.
Primarily our spirituality is based on Shruti or Vedas.. and the Smritis and Soothras based on that.
Kula acharam evolves based on these fundamental dictates.
If some acharam which are not according to Shruti , Smrithi and Sootras creep in they should be stopped immediately when such aberrations are noticed.
Such aberrations can easily happen nowadays because many of us and our parents too are not sure about the rules.
And a Vadhyar or a guru of a region different from ours originally may not understand our exact background.
Those who re settle in Metroplis or North or in foreign countries face such dilemma.
And sadly there is a tendency to flout acharams and introduce new practices contrary to Shrutis and Smrithis even in ancient Agraharams like ours.
That is suicidal
