In case anyone just missed what happened, Avi K asked Joseph for a source about the Beis Din Paskening by what they consider proper, and Joseph responding with the Sugya of Maus Alai. It was a brilliant irrelevant deflection, but an irrelevant deflection nonetheless. Maus Alai is not the only potential claim that a woman can have to ask for a divorce. A Beid Din can Pasken Mitzvah Legaresh for anything as simple as recognizing that the marriage os over with no future hope for reconciliation.
