Commentary for Ketubot 111:14

בשלמא אביי לא אמר כרבי ירמיה לא קתני שוברתה מתוכה אלא ר' ירמיה מ"ט לא אמר כאביי גזירה שובר דהכא אטו שובר דעלמא

One can well understand why Abaye did not say like R. Yirmiyah, since it does not teach the receipt was written within, but why did R. Yirmiyah not say like Abaye? The receipt here is forbidden as a preventive measure lest they permit a receipt elsewhere.
