	That is perhaps why a beis din requires multiple points of view
	Ein dan yehidi ela echad.
	And perhaps this explains why I favor relying upon a consensus
of poskim and while I remain skeptical of individual poskim.  Emunas
Chachamim not Emunas Chacham?

	 =================================================
	FWIW there is a difference between a beis din and use of
consensus of poskim.  The maalah of beit din (as discussed in the
commentaries on horiyot for example) is more along the lines either  of
the delphi technique - the back and forth of joint analysis (or
milchamta shel torah) will arrive at the correct conclusion- or that
there is a hashraat shechina (in particular the gemara there mentions 10
- iirc the ben yehoyada states the special shruya when a minyan is
formed).  While one could stretch these to consensus of poskim who don't
meet, it's at least somewhat a stretch.
