Is the hadith: "Whoever performs wudu on Friday, that is sufficient and excellent, and whoever performs ghusl, the ghusl is better," a reason to change the obligation of the Friday ghusl to a recommendation?

The questioner : He says: You mentioned that the Friday ghusl is obligatory, and there is a hadith: Does not this first one change the obligation to a recommendation?

The Shaykh : The poet says:
"Like one who butts a rock one day to weaken it *** But he did not harm it, and his horn was weakened, the ibex"
The ibex butts the rock to crush it, but what breaks? The ibex's horn. So he did not harm it, and his horn was weakened, the ibex's.
This hadith, may Allah reward you, is a mursal hadith, and there is doubt regarding its authenticity back to the Messenger. Also, its style does not have the smoothness of the Prophetic speech: Meaning, if you hear the speech of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), especially if you read a lot of Prophetic hadiths, you find it has a luster and smoothness not like this speech. So this hadith is weak and cannot compete with the hadith of Abu Sa'id, which the seven imams narrated with clear and explicit wording: And on this basis, there is no contradiction between the two hadiths, because the hadith of Samurah that you referred to does not compete with the hadith of Abu Sa'id.
