<div>>> Only if you think that a yeshiva's most elite sort of product is one who<br>toraso umnaso. But what if the elite yeshiva isn't an "air force academy",<br>and the whole assumption that the "pilots" are the elite is false? <<</div>

<div>Since the Yeshiva words heeds RMF's position that one who advocates the Rambam's opinion today regarding support from Torah study is falling prey to his Yetzer Hara, and support for learners in Kollel is available, metzuyonim are enjoined to learn all day. Toraso Keva Umelachto Arai is the other permitted option for them, but since there is a means of support without it, and we hold like RMF, there is no reason they should follow that path. Kevias Ittim LaTorah and making do with supporting those who study Torah is muttar for people who are not capable of mastering Torah. See Shulchan Aruch Harav 3:2-4, and Igros Moshe YD IV 36.</div>
