Does a Jew's back karfef exempt him from prohibiting the mavoi if the karfef was enclosed for dwelling purposes (hukaf l'dirah)?
Synopsis
Two opinions dispute the effect of a karfef being hukaf l'dirah (enclosed originally for residential use). The Mechaber brings both views: the first holds hukaf l'dirah is better (full carrying permitted, so Jew prefers it), while the Tosafot view holds it is worse (no 'air'/open quality, so Jew does not prefer it and still prohibits).
