I never said anything of the sort. My position has consistently been that each community should follow it’s own Rebbeim. I’m not aware of any Chareidi Gedolim insisting that that all shailos should be directed to them.
You wrote that “two can play that game”. From my point of view it’s a dumb game. Why would anyone want to play? It’s not emes.
It is for the above reason that I don’t understand where you are coming from with the whole takana thing. No one today has the authority to issue at takana that would be binding on all communities.
I think you know this already.
As far as Chareidim believing they are the only ones who represent authentic Judaism. No doubt there are chareidim who think that way. There are also DL chevra who think this way. This is unfortunate and demonstrates a paucity in self awareness.
