Absolutely. I think the Lord's Day is hallowed. Again, it's not a matter of whether it is holy but I think there can be proper reverance for the Sabbath among two believers while one is more scrupulous about how that reverance is observed. There can also be those that use liberty as an opportunity for license. In the former case, the over-scrupulous should be content to observe the Sabbath as their conscience demands and, if they don't want to use ovens then be content, but don't despise a brother who does not. It can then become very tricky to start stripping away where the scruples end and determining a "line" beyond which a person is not really observing the Sabbath.
I don't think we're supposed to be "measuring" each other this way. If our goal is the maturing of others in all things, including the Sabbath, then it's not to make them "like me" but to ensure that their hearts are ever more tender to the things of God so that any desire they have to make the Sabbath holy flows out of a delight in their heart to do so and not that "so and so" will disapprove of me if I do not.
