Well said. The only thing that bothers me is the SEED part. What the SEED bochurim do is a tremendous thing and they have lots of results to show for it. Many communities were built up and “turned over” to more frum due to the accomplishments of SEED and they therefore should not be knocked. Otherwise, your point is a good one and I don’t know what the eitza is. Who says thousands of bochurim should have a month less of “during the zman” learning because the camps need good counselors? Perhaps the Yeshivos Ketanos should go until Tisha B’av, albeit on a more lax schedule in July than the rest of the year? That makes more sense to me than shortening the Zman of the Yeshivos Gedolos.
