Does a stipulation regarding eighth-day (shemini atzeret) decorations have different rules than for the seven days of Sukkot?
Synopsis
On the eighth day (shemini atzeret), decorations become muktzeh solely due to the set-aside status, not the festival structure itself; therefore, a stipulation regarding them falling is effective, unlike for the seven days.
