[Avodah] hoist by his editor's petard

[Rich, Joel]

What value is a psak lacking explanation? Rabbi Rosen (p. 22 column 2)
rules that it lacks precedential value: "horaah kol zman shelo nisbarer
lanu ta'amo ein tzarich lachush l'dvarav klal.  Ki haoser v'hamtamei
tzarich l'havi ra'ayah".

Ironically the editor doesn't cite Rabbi Rosen's explanation.  The
source is "Likutei basar Likutei, ed. R. Y. Mandelkern, letter 8, pp. 
49-50".  Does anyone have access to this book? If so, can you post the
reasoning?

Thanks,

David Riceman
