The proof that Rav Asher quoted from Rosh 13:20 for Bet Yosef, Shevet Halevi already explained why it is irrelevant. Rosh says that there's no onaah for a seller's license since its price changes. Rav Asher explains that this is like Bet Yosef's idea that there's no onaah for something with no fixed price. However, Shevet Halevi explains that there's onaah since there's no way to evaluate the price of the license since its value really depends on the income it'll bring in that year, which is an unknown changing quantity.</ref> | The proof that Rav Asher quoted from Rosh 13:20 for Bet Yosef, Shevet Halevi already explained why it is irrelevant.
