Thirdly:
Some scholars who stated that it is saheeh or that it is proven from sahabah viewed that acting upon it is legislated (mashroo')
Hence (unlike al-Sa'd) Al-Tarefi although he declared that this hadeeth is not authentic marfoo' (being attributed to the Prophet), said that it is authentic to Abu Huraira (mawqoof). Along with some supporting evidences (from the sahabah), he viewed that the narration is taken as it — i.e. in its apparent meaning, if he has a vessel for water in his hands he drinks it or food in his hands he eats the morsel. Not more than that. Not a second or third or a fourth.
Likewise the Sheikh, Sulaiman Al-Ulwan says it is authentic to Abu Huraira, mawqoof, and decalred tha if a water container is in his hands he can use it. This he limited it to ONLY for water but not for food. (Stating the narration mentions water container in the hands, as the only exception.)
So they both viewed this is an exception, a concession (rukhsa) for a person who has it in his hands.
And they establish this upon mawqoof narration from sahabah.
Important Note
The scholars who allowed this, as you can see, ONLY limited it to what is in his hands. While we see some people who have taken this hadeeth and eat and drink sometimes until fajr adhan (which is baseless innovation) or they eat and drink till their full, which is not the concession provided fron the hadeeth.
Ruling of one who eat or drink misinterpreting the Hadeeth
What is stronger is that one who ate interpreting the hadeeth as to eat full or because someone who he has strong trust in religion stated that he can eat full etc, is that he does not have to repeat the fasting. (Although some scholars stated it is preferred to take safe side) The matter is proven in the narration where Adiy bin Hatim ate misinterpreting the verse of Quran about the white and black thread. The Prophet explained its real meaning and didn't order him to repeat the sawm. This is also the view that Sheikhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah held. As for anyone who acted on hearsay or without evidence he should repeat it. As for repeating and also giving kaffaara, Ahmad and Al-Shafiee stated that kaffara is not legislated in cases other than sexual intercourse, due to lack of evidence on the matter in specific.
And Allah knows best.

This Supplication upon breaking the fast is Daīf and is a mursal report.
-Shaykh Al-Muhaddith al-'Alwān
_
"The supplication (ذهب الظمأ وابتلَّت العروق...) upon breaking the fast is not Sahīh as both it's chain and matn (text) are gharīb (strange- differing from the way of reports that are commonly related), and moreover, one of the narrators of it is unknown.
Also, the supplication (اللهم لك صمت، وعلى رزقك أفطرت...) Is not Sahīh either.
And under this chapter (supplications for breaking the fast), there is nothing proven which can be relied upon/considered Sahīh.
Hence, there is no issue if the person fasting makes any dhikr or dua which they find easy, as long as one does not consider any dua/dhikr to be specific for this.

أفطرنا »
Saying this upon breaking the fast is daif (weak), and it is a Mursal report.

☑️ A man broke his fast [intentionally] during Ramaḍān, so the Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم commanded him to emancipate a slave, or fast for two months, or feed sixty poor people. He said, “I cannot find [the provisions to do this].” Then a large basket of dates was brought to the Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم ,so he said, “Take this and give it to charity.” He said, “O Messenger of Allāh, there is none more in need than I.” The Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم thereupon laughed to the point where his canine teeth became visible and said, “Eat it [yourself].”
