The change has been rank and file and not on the terms of bifurcations of lay/rabbinic; groups have grown and existed with rabbis and OTHER halachically-informed peoples among them – gendering aside. They have begun to address their desire to clarify their own parameters with halacha as authoritive (according to their own agendas, granted, but RW Charedim w/o smicha can start shuls and beitei midrash), I think that needs to be where emphasis in all the religious worlds.
