“putting aside the inaccuracies in your post regarding Shkiya”
He’s actually correct by the way. We’ve only been choshesh for shkiah rishona for about 100 years, maybe less. It’s a very recent thing. Nobody is Europe went like shitas hagaonim; even the Mishnah Berurah admits this. In any case, it’s not nogeia to this discussion; I just wasn’t sure why you claimed he was being inaccurate. I know it’s kind of “forbidden knowledge” in the Orthodox world that we didn’t hold this way until recently, but it would be misleading to claim otherwise. The mainstream minhag is to just never talk about it, but actively denying it seems dishonest.
