R’ Moshe zt”l picked his teshuvos for the Igros very carefully. They were meant to apply to the klal as a whole, and not just for specific cases. Letters or teshuvos that he wrote which are NOT in the Igros aren’t necessarily intended for the entire public.
The teshuvos which R’ Moshe put into the Igros Moshe don’t say anything about shas hadchak for using chalav ha’Companies. One letter which states it was written to a yeshiva which was thinking of using chalav haCompanies due to the cost of chalav Yisrael. R’ Moshe held strongly that a yeshiva should use chalav Yisrael, so he wrote it should only be done b’shas hadchak.
Any teshuva which states shas hadchak was not meant for the public. It’s only modern-day kanoim, who are trying to show how holy they are, who are now pushing this agenda, trying to claim that R’ Moshe was really opposed to it.
