Commentary for Gittin 105:8
ולהא דתני אבוה דר' אבין בראשונה היו אומרים המטמא והמנסך חזרו לומר אף המדמע כל הני למה לי
— They are still necessary. For if only the one who renders unclean had been mentioned, I should have said that the reason is because no greater penalty is involved, but I should not have applied the rule to one who makes a libation, where a greater penalty is involved. If again the one who makes a libation had been mentioned, I should have said this was because the stuff is spoilt entirely, but I should not have applied the rule to one who renders unclean, where the stuff is not spoilt entirely. If again these two had been mentioned, I should say the reason is because the loss involved is considerable, but I should not apply the rule to one who mixes, where the loss involved is small.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Because the stuff can still be sold to a priest at no great sacrifice.
