Is there a blanket hetter of tzorech hamoed for kesiva the way there is for
other melachos?  It seems that koseiv is much more chamur.  I remember from
when I looked up some of this stuff in MB a while back that the poskim are
mattir writing down chiddushim b/c of davar ha'aveid, but I don't remember
tzorech hamoed (or your automatic hetter of Torah) mentioned there.
