It’s not a fact. You have arbitrarily decided on who qualifies for gadlus based on your opinion. There were gedolim who held of creating a medina, and yes Rav Kook was one (regardless of whether or not you agree with some of his more controversial piskei halocho) – Rav Sonnenfeld, despite disagreeing with him on many things, was machshiv him as such, as was R’ Aryeh Levine and R’ Elyashiv. You, however, based on your opinion, have decided that he was not as he had the ‘chutzpa’ to disagree with your received wisdom. This is the no true Scotsman. Treifus is an absolute as it is a pasuk mefureshes, and therefore by definition someone who disagrees cannot qualify for gadlus. Like saying a bird cannot be a fish. But a Scotsman can wear underpants.
Just so you know, I am not and do not intend to ever be any form of tziyoni. I am also not Satmar, and definitely not Neturei Karta. I may be Agguda, I’m not quite sure. I am trying to present a balanced view of the inyan, that’s all.
