[Avodah] timtum halev

[Eli Turkel]

<<It seems to me that in the dispute over whether Chilul Shabos for
Sakana is "hutrah" or "dechuyah", there is comparatively little
difference in Halacha L'Maaseh. The main differences are in these
metaphysical areas.>>

I didn't understand the difference. Even if pikuach nefesh is dechuya
the halacha is that
gedolei yisroel (interpreted as the great rabbis) should be the ones
to do saving.
There is no chillul shabbat even if it turns out that there was no danger.

Why would be there be any damage to the soul if we are commanded to be
mechalel shabbat
even through dechuya. On the contrary one is credited with a great mitzvah
independent of hutra or dechuya
