Thank you for commenting on my ink article. In your comment you stated: "Many poskim disagree... Many rishonim have clearly stated the use of our ingredients."

Oh ok.
Delete(But why not put it in the picture anyway, as he did all the other oktzim and tagin.
Interesting he mentions a lamed should be chof / vov , (not chof /yud) which is not specific to the Arizal davkeh, rather something from shulchan oruch.)
Seems that emphasis here is on the כ"ף that according to אר"י ז"ל it should be complete ממש בשלימות.
DeleteAnd in regards to the וא"ו he refers to what he already said before.
