yissochor dov:
1. Ok, so you are making a new argument now. Now you are saying that you personally feel certain chumros are excessive. You may be correct, and that is a fine opinion to have. I also think some chumros are excessive. But I still respect the people, and think they mean well. (One of these days I’ll go on an anti-chumrah ranting, and say what my rosh yeshiva used to say about chumros.)
2. As it happens, the burkas have been condemned by many chareidi rabbonim. We all think the burka people are crazy. And it is not relevant at all to this discussion. Don’t expect shmarya to post about that anytime soon, though.
