See RSRH's critique of the Rambam in 19 Letters, letter #18. This is
exactly the line he believes the Rambam crossed. Albeit not in the domain
of halakhah as much as aggadita -- hashkafah and mussar. And RSRH is
far from alone, thus the whole Maimonidian Controversy, the objection
in the Gra's comentary on SA... But RSRH frames it in the similar terms
to those used here by RBW.
