<div>The Tamud in two places (Sanhedrin 51a and Zvachim 45a) asks hilchata lmashicha which pretty much means why come to a halachic conclusion if there is no immediate application. I’m looking for possible theories as to why coming to a halachic conclusion
on such issues might trouble the Talmud (I have a few but don’t want to prejudice anyone).</div>
