Many RIETS/YU Rabbis are very machshiv Rav Asher Weiss. I'm just curious if you have any thoughts on his psakim being based on an approach which differs from the one I assume they received. I've heard him say in the past that he is not enamored with the tzvei dinim approach. At the recent yarchei kallah He made a point of saying that he stresses in his Yeshiva that often times modern questions are not based on competing underlying rishonic conceptualizations (I assume he meant chakira) but rather on nuanced differentiations [That's what I pretty much heard] Do you agree with my assessment from your experience and, if so, how should  that affect a YU/RIETS product  evaluation of his psak.
