simcha:

So then what is the dividing line?

Is it not “things that Hashem wants us to conform our actions in a certain way?”

Is it “things that I think I might know better than the rabbis?” Well, that applies to halacha as well. Like suppose I’ve decided I understand electricity better than the rabbis. Or that I understand medicine better than the rabbis, as relevant to halachic aspects of medicine.

I don’t see what you’re saying.
