Jul 7, 2021 at 5:18 comment added Steven Landsburg I agree with @DavidRoberts, where the bit about isolating a specific step is crucial.
Jul 5, 2021 at 9:04 comment added David Roberts Mod If you can isolate the specific step you are interested in, then I see little issue with asking if there are issues with the constructivity or otherwise of that step.
Jul 4, 2021 at 9:28 comment added Moishe Kohan I understand this. I think, your question is a special case of what was asked earlier (and, as far as I can tell, decided that it's in general MO-appropriate, subject to the standard caveats). But this was long ago and the current consensus might be different.
Jul 4, 2021 at 9:22 comment added Manfred Weis @MoisheKohan I think that my question has a bit of a different flavor by asking for counter examples to a constructive proof, which IMHO is not quite the same as asking whether a proof is correct in the sense of identifying the reasoning that is flawed
