Well-written and well-reasoned – but unfortunately, the Chareidi leadership has continually refused to engage in the specific arguments brought, and their followers have been indoctrinated to believe in Rabbinic infallibility via the imposition of the new concept of “Daas Torah” and following THE “Gadol haDor” – something that did not historically exist. Perhaps there will be those who actually use the reasoning ability granted them by HKB”H to actually look into the issues – but it is likely to only be a few yechidim, unfortunately.
