[Avodah] Rav Schachter on Kiddushei Ta'us; and a hypothesis re: Annulment

[Richard Wolpoe]

See Rav Schachter on Kiddushei Ta'us

http://www.torahweb.org/torah/special/2001/rsch_nissuin.html

In this posting I essentially concur with  Rav Schachter.

RRW's Hypothesis [caveta: this is probably based upon one of the Rishonim
but I am not sure]:
Hazal only use afk'inhu in the presence of a Defective Get. However, in the
total absence of a Get, they do not use annulment.

I don't enough of shas to confirm this, but in the cases I DO know if seems
to hold true.  That Hazal use annulment in get on a t'nai or in other
conditions which the Get is flawed somehow.

If my hypothesis is true, then we need no fancy rationalizations to counter
flimsy annulments; rather annulments are self-limited anyway.

Can anyone help me verify if this hypotheis is true of at least 99% true?
