Halachic consistency

Hi,

“The law follows Beit Hillel. One who wishes to follow Beit Shammai may do so, one who wishes to follow Beit Shammai may do so. One who follows the leniencies of Beit Shammai and the leniencies of Beit Hillel is wicked. Regarding one who follows the stringencies of Beit Shammai and the stringencies of Beit Hillel, it is written (Kohelet 2), ‘The fool walks in the dark.’"

"Rather, either like Beit Shammai’s leniencies and stringencies, or like Beit Hillel’s leniencies and stringencies.”

(Talmud, Chullin 43b-44a)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
