May the merit of the Rebbe's bracha stand by them and all the hostages still in Gaza!

You'll best be served by following Reuven Leigh, who's on the other app - he's written more about R Abraham Chein than most anyone. Including substack.

If you think calling Rashi AND Rambam somehow isn't "Biblically accurate," I think you need to touch grass.

The Rambam's pirush Hamishnayos

Lol.
I'm pretty sure that Rashi and Rambam can define something as Biblically accurate.

Dura synagogue part of antiquity enough? Roman Catacombs? (see on the right)
There are other examples.
(And yes, before you snark, Dura also has round menorahs. The point is that there is a tradition of depicting straight arms)

וְאָמַר רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בְּרַבִּי יוֹסֵי: אֲנִי רְאִיתִיו בְּרוֹמִי
And yet we rely on Halacha.
The Rambam and Rashi say an angular menorah.
I'm perfectly happy following them. But you do you.
Happy Chanukah.
