Oct 8, 2020 at 6:57 comment added Dov Weinstein 2. Rav Henkin does not "accept" anything. Rather he shows, using a array of sources including the one quoted by RibbisRabbiAndMore above, that nails do not in fact mekkabel tumah. The answer to RibbisRabbiAndMore's question is "correct." Stating outright that the Chazon Ish made an error would be considered rude, and that's why no one has said it.
Oct 8, 2020 at 6:52 comment added Dov Weinstein 1. The issue we are discussing - namely the tumah status of nails - is not something that "people say in the name of the Chazon Ish." Rather, as correctly quoted by RibbisRabbiAndMore above, it appears explicitly in his writing. What Rav Henkin points out that people say in the name of the Chazon Ish, but does not appear explicitly in his writings is a different issue - namely that it is forbidden to use such nails to attach the walls of the sukka to each other.

Oct 7, 2020 at 13:36 comment added Double AA It seems like he just accepts the question that indeed this chumra that people say in the name of the chazon ish is mistaken. That's only sort of an answer.
