Is Sefirah Becoming Like the 9 Days?

"The Time from Passover to Shavuos is a time of Minimizing Joy"

This phrase is borrowed from Mishenichnas Av Mim'aatin B'Simchah.

Are the 2 cases truly parallel?

Tur O"Ch 492 "Shelo l'harbot b'Simchah"

Kitzur SA 120:6
"Lochein nohagin bayamim Elu K'tzat Aveilut..."

Can we learn from this how "Humra-ization" takes hold? Is the S'firah Period going to soon match the "Nine Days"?

Best Regards,
RRW
