Commentary for Berakhot 66:9
אמר ליה לאו הלכה אתמר אלא מטין אתמר
[R. Zera] said to him: It has not been reported that the Halakah [is in accord with R. Eliezer], but it has been reported that we incline [towards his view].
Abraham Cohen Footnotes to the English Translation of Masechet Berakhot
I.e. it is not taught in the Schools as a Halakah, but if a Rabbi is asked for his opinion, he follows R. Eliezer's view.
