Thank you, DY, for your good wishes.

The assertion that Divorce in 95% of circumstances, which Joseph made and has not retracted; and which you seem to have defended, flies in the face of halocho. Tell me, where in Devorim Perek chof daled do you see criminality described or implied? Do either the man or woman involved need to bring a korban chatos? Is there a punishment described, Or anything making it a La’av?

If Toras Moshe MiSinai doesn’t even describe it as a transgression or an undesired act like Nazir which needs a korban chatos at the end, Where does Joseph, or anyone he cites (and while he cites many who say divorce is often undesirable and avoidable, I don’t recall seeing qa source that says, like he did, that it is criminal) get the gumption to say it is criminal? And why would you defend the assertion?
