[Avodah] long peyot

[Marty Bluke via Avodah]

In addition to the points brought up by R' Eli Turkel against long peyot, I
would like to raise the following:
The shiur given by all of the poskim for each hair is very very short, and
in fact because it is a lo taase there is probably not even an inyan of
hidur mitzvah. Therefore it is not clear why there would be any inyan to
grow long peyot.

The truth is it would be much better to be machmir on the shiur of where
peyot harosh ends (maybe the very bottom of the ear) which is a safek issur
d'oraysa then to grow long peyot which has no kiyum al pi din.
