Not in any halachic sense.

You're using rhetoric to blur the legal precision of halachic discourse.
Much the way RnTK suggested about the original declaration. And I suggested
a couple of weeks ago about the Aseifah.

One effect of daas Torah or the Chassidishe rebbe-talmid relationship is
that by using similar mechanisms to obtain pesaq halakhah as to obtain
extra-halachic guidance, it becomes too easy to blur the line between
them.

Tir'u baTov!
