“1) NO ONE DISAGREES that kibuyi on YT is assur, even when done to prevent loss,”
“except when it can be categorized as ochel nefesh.”
“2) NO ONE DISAGREES that the same applies to lowering the flame even if part of it, such as a pilot light, remains lit.”
“3) NO ONE DISAGREES that removing fuel from a fire that causes an immediate change in the intensity of the fire is kibuyi.”
“4) NO ONE DISAGREES that we have numerous Poskim including 3 published teshuvos from Reb Moshe that kibuyi would also apply to blocking the flow of gas into the fire, and we have not yet found any source to differentiate.”
“Rumors of anonymous “talmidim and family members” do NOT count as a source.”
