The point is that Lubavichers face the same problem. I’m sure that many recognize the issues that we’ve brought to the fore, but they feel that they can’t say or do anything or they’ll face ostracism.

that’s an overly rosy view in my opinion …
the lubavichers are hamstrung ,but not because of the fear of ostracism
it is because they cannot accept , under any circumstance , that their rebbi should be mistaken , anytime , on any topic whatsoever
and it is that irrational belief which is the foundation and the singular source of their continuous conundrum
on all of their so called ‘issues’ which are brought up , they are able to point to utterances or writings of their “infallible” rebbi which are a valid source for their mistaken and problematic belief
even though that their rebbi himself is not able to point to any preceding source to validate his opinion
the very minute that a habadi is willing to accept the possibility that his leader , even while being great man , erred , is the very minute of his salvation
otherwise we will continue to go round and round in the same merry go round without any solution whatsoever
