Mod80: I’m sorry you feel that way 🙂
However, even if a Gadol has Da’as Torah (whatever that is), he is not omniscent. If he is not aware that (in this case) the husband would be mad (if he would have been), we can say that if he would have known, he would not have made the suggestion.
Unless of course you are suggesting that Gedolim ARE omniscent?
LOL, and delete it if you really don’t want to go here.
