Collar on Saturday
A water cooler on Shabbat from Kutno. If you fill a large bottle, the refrigerator will probably turn on. Can it be turned on on Shabbat?
The principle in question is that operating the collar is a rabbinical ruling and the prohibition is rabbinical. And the question is whether it is possible to define this as not being permissible for her, since this is not the purpose of the action, even though in the end it is permissible for me to do so for the next water extraction.
If this is truly a psir, there is a debate among poskim regarding psir in rabbinic prohibitions even when it is acceptable. The Maga cites from the Terumad that it is permissible. It is true that it is accepted to rule that it is forbidden.
I don’t see a situation of discomfort here. It has nothing to do with the purpose of the action (even in your luck, the goal is not to extinguish the people. This is the situation in all cases of a “PsyR”). The question is whether you are comfortable with the result – and here you certainly are.
