[Avodah] Intuition - sources

[Rich, Joel]

Which in yet another thread (#4) I
argued was the real basis for banning electricity on Shabbos. There is
more consensus that it simply doesn't intuitively fit the idea of 
Shabbos than figuring out the mechanics of the issur.

 ======================
R' Asher Weiss based on the Yerushalmi says that this is what chazal did
in general on w/r/t shabbat - anything that they felt s/b asser went
into makeh bpatish. IIRC When I looked at the Yerusahlami it seemed to
me (and I am less than dust to him) like they were talking about actions
that there was already a mesora on.  OTOH R' AW frequently says "libi
omer li" which I think fits nicely with your general theory.  IIRC I
heard that  a posek will often "know" the answer and then build the
case.  The problem imho  is that they probably could have built an
equally convincing case the other way and where does the boundary line
to divrei neviut fall (or put another way, the process fails the
repeatability test)?
