HIE,
If it’s so clear-cut that Ocean Parkway is a Rishus HaRabim (and therefore unable to be enclosed by an eruv), then why do think there are people (by which I mean rabbis, who, presumably know this fact which most high school yeshiva bochrim know) who hold by the eruv? Do you think that they are all ignoramuses? Or perhaps… just perhaps… it’s not as clear-cut as you make it out to be and that while Rav Belsky and others may, indeed hold that way, there are others who have diligently looked into the matter and came to a different conclusion?
Or do you think it’s all just one giant conspiracy to enable people to push strollers on Shabbos?
