Well, couldn’t one respond, “The problem is that even though that would work for Yeraim, there are many Orthodox Jews (of all sects) who, while willing to follow the letter of the law, do not feel that a Geder created out of thin air due to issues of Ksav She’eino Miskayem should or will apply to them.”?
DY – I believe the appropriate term would be :-p
I’d also give it a “like” if there was a “like” button. Good job, and very possibly there were people at the time of Chazal who said exactly that.
If it were only zilzul, I would say so (and insist that it’s still very much assur), but it happens to not be.
Agreed, but I’m not here to preach to the Chazzan. The idea would be L’shitasam (for those who are not Choshesh for Zilzul, unfortunately), how can we convince them that this is Assur for other reasons so that they won’t use the app? I believe we have accomplished that much.
