Chacham: Since you seem to be the chacham in this matter, I have a question that has been bothering me for quite some time. Since there is a machlokes how many strings need to be tcheiles, there is a serious problem in wearing tcheiles if one cannot be machria how many strings. For example let’s assume one string is correct. Well, if someone were to then go ahead and wear four strings of tcheiles, then he doesn’t have the proper amount of lavan(seven strings). So he is wearing a beged without tzitzis. Similarly if four is correct and he wears only one, again he has a beged without tzitzis. If someone wears eight strings lavan he is yotzei lavan but if he wears the wrong combination of lavan and tcheiles he is not yotzei lavan or tcheiles and he is wearing a four-cornered beged without tzitzis. So unless you know how to be machria between the Rambam, Raavad, Tosfos, how can you just pick one shitta?
