(Obviously, bedieved, he isn’t potur of shlichus! But to say it when farbrening with our pure Bochurim.. is planting a rotten seed in their holy minds and souls.)

This support system is a relatively new development. People went on shlichus for decades without it. Where there’s a will, a passion, a belief, there’s a way.

You have made a good point. Ess klingt. A bell.
So let’s come up with a practical solution. Maybe a division in the office of shluchim for “clandestine operations”, or “Shluchim in disguise”. Undercover shluchim who will be given access to infrastructure that aids and supports their “operations”, as well as access to The Kinnus. They can adopt the option of answering (when asked what/where are you located) “clandestine operations”. THAT could become a status to be honored and/or envied.

There is tremendous infrastructure available to the people you call Shluchim with a capital S.
There are programs for their kids, retreats for inspiration, grants for simchos and financial support for a whole list of things that can come up for a family living away from a natural support structure.
A young Chassidishe couple moves to to be shluchim with a lower case s- they can’t access all of that infrastructure. Of course they want the capital S. Then the existing Shluchim get territorial and politics happens and why are we surprised?
It’s the same reason we lack melamdim and moros. We don’t offer a support structure to keep their choices viable. Abi mesiras nefesh but let’s be honest – Our best and brightest aren’t stupid.
