    He also strongly implied that a not-insignificant part of the old “law” were cultural traditions and compromises, rather than directives from god.

    First see, this.
    Matthew 22:34-40

    Then this.
    Mark 7:1-13

    And then this.
    Matthew 19:3-8

    He was very clear that what he laid out in Matthew 22:34-40 was the summary of all law, and that any and all others must be derived from that. If they do not, it is just a tradition.
