Lets back up
Square said “The Three Oaths are Agadic Midrash, and therefore they are
NOT Halachically obligatory [they are not legally binding].”
UJM replied “he Oaths are quoted L’Halachah in numerous sources, including but not limited to: Piskei Riaz”
I commented how unusual this topic is, as I cant think of any other halachic discussion where a Piskei Riaz was te first mareh makom
You replied “is that they aren’t dinim, but they are realities that chazal warn us about.”
To which I replied “So Its just a bad idea, not assur.”
so we agree! . The shalosh shavuos are not a halchick issur in the classical sense, just like Square pointed out.
. Much like there is no halacha obligating one to engage in Tefila*/doron/milchama when in galus and dealing with goyim (your example, though one I was surprised to see you mention) , it is good advice, in fact the best advice, who else to get advice from, if our mesora. Same is true here,
As an aside the whole Ben Hecht thing is odd. Ben Hecht was an ardent Zionist. He was opposed to Labor Zionism, using his book as an anti-zionist argument is nonsensical
(* tefila of course is an obligaiton bshas tzara, but not because of Yaakov)
