Hey what's with the sarcasm Merry!
The use of a different process or technology to for the benefit of the Deen is encouraged as far as I know.
I certainly don't want to get into the my scholar is better than yours argument, but let's just say the Ulema you mentioned(May Allah be pleased with them all) are all from Saudi, and the Islamic scholarship realm Alhumdullillah is much wider than that. Many scholars of the 20th/21st Centuries from the Sham, Africa, Sub continent, Yemen S.E Asia have major disagreements with many stands taken by the Ulema you mentioned. Each has their evidences and arguments. So how does one go about evaluating things? At the end of the day it's down to the Taqwa of the individual and whom you trust. We have to respect each other's opinion if they are indeed coming from a valid source and basis.
