There’s a big difference; you are making it sound as if the imbalance is a positive side effect, while I am saying that it is a negative one.

That is girls not being married (sure, bad thing). The results of a solution would be even worse (L’shitasam), thereby making the status quo a positive.

Of course if the problem could be solved in a vacuum they would do it. However, it is tied into everything else that is “top top priority” (Baboker Baboker), so they do nothing.

It may be a “top priority” for every Rosh Yeshiva (questionable, as the programs circumvent the yeshivos instead of working with them), but there is no buy-in from any Rosh Yeshiva for a solution that affects their own Bochrim. Sounds like PBA is correct, or “top priority” is Lashon Sagi Nahor.

Sorry, I’m not buying it. Neither is any Rosh Yeshiva, who may cry and cry, but isn’t lifting a finger to act.
