Another reason behind Rav Moshe’s thinking is that since Brooklyn is the place with the highest frum Jewish concentration, he did not want generations of people growing up within an Eruv where it is usual to carry on Shabbos. He rather preferred that the majority of Jewish children recognize that Shabbos is different by NOT carrying on that day. He did not want the Halacha to be forgotten.
