Syag: Im hearing from your response that you thought i called it wrong because people will feel bad from it and we shouldn’t hurt people’s feelings even if the Torah dictates something.
“Even if the Torah dictates” – Just to : we don’t mean that the Torah dictates to hurt his feelings. In such a case, we should certainly do so. We mean not to do something the Torah dictates in a way that will hurt feelings.
1. is about taking a halacha and being true to it but carrying it out in ways that are NOT prescribed/condoned by halacha, even lichatchila (the table scenario)
What is wrong with the table scenario besides for the bad middos displayed?
