I was told that R chaim brisker was saving bachurim from college by
making gmara intellectually competitve

Was this hora'as sha'ah? I dunno.

I have always enjoyed brisker learning but I doubted its halachic veracity
early on.

I ask those who are Rambam purists which one do they follow;
The rambam on mishen the .MT or his shu"t
