This is why the Maharal (Be'er 1, ch 19 or so) says that the Tur is
only usable because of the BY, and SA, because it comes with the suite
of nosei keilim.

Speaking after years of learning AhS daily... There is a strong feel for
the flow of the pesaq and how each area of halakhah is reasoned through
by going to Tur, BY, SA, nosei keilim, AhS.

It could be the Maharshal too would be more bothered by the Yad than
by the other codes, IFF once studies the Tur or SA (or MB) with the
other texts that explain how we got there.
