He thought Shmura Matzah, you have to be Hoshesh throughout the rest of Pesach that it wasn't
However, nowadays that wouldn't be a problem at all.
Because our Shmur Matzah, our non-Shmur Matzah, we're pretty certain is not Chameitz.
It's just that it wasn't made L'shma.
It wasn't made L'shei Mitzvot Matzah.
That's the only thing that it's missing.
So although the Shulchan Aruch says that there's no requirement to eat matzah at any time on Pesach, other than the keziahs that you eat at the seder, the Mishabrura in Simmon, Taf Ayin He, Sivkatan Mem He, and Simmon Taf Reish, Lamed Tes, Sivkatan Chavdal, quotes from the Vilnagon, that although there's no chiyuv to eat matzah at any time other than the night of the seder, there is a chiyuv mitzvah.
of Achillus Matzah throughout all seven days of Pesach.
And that's why many people are mocked that they might as well eat only Shmurah Matzah throughout the rest of the days of Pesach because there's a Qiyam Mitzvah with each Keziah of Matzah that you eat throughout the rest of the days of Pesach.
So all handmade Matzah that we sell today is Shmurah Matzah.
And many machine matzahs are also shmura matzah, but that's questionable to begin with.
There is a discussion in the post, is it even shy for machine matzah to be shmura?
Because if shmura means that the asiyah is l'shma, that it's made, the baking is done l'shma, well, a machine can't do l'shma.
You can do l'shamah if you're the one that's sticking it in the oven.
But if it's all done by a machine, so the machine doesn't have the power to make it l'shamah, according to some postkin.
So that was a big tumult in the postkin.
That maybe if you turn on the machine, and when you turn on the machine, you do l'shamah, maybe that's good enough.
