Why aren't worried about carrying matza on Shabas?
The _Bavli_ in various places (e.g. [_Suka_ 42–43](https://www.sefaria.org.il/Sukkah.42b.10)) explains that the rabbis did away with blowing _shofar_ and taking _lulav_ on _Shabas_ lest one "take it to an expert to learn, and carry it four cubits in public" thereby breaking the laws of _Shabas_. So why didn't they do away with eating _matza_ on _Shabas_? It also has laws that one may want to ask an expert about.
