You're theorizing that the initial 2 shots are too close together? If you're right, Canada is going to come out of this looking like geniuses.
More than theorizing, I believe there was some solid data to back up, maybe out of the UK where they waited at least 12 weeks.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

לראשונה מפרוץ גל התחלואה הנוכחי: משרד הבריאות עדכן הבוקר (שלישי) כי יותר מ-700 מאומתים אובחנו אתמול בישראל. בנוסף, מספר החולים קשה עומד על 46 בני אדם  מהם עשרה מונשמים, ומספר הנפטרים הוא 6,439.

1.3% positive.

Yes, that's an important point, and they're aware of that.  They do mention somewhere that they know that these numbers underestimate the true infection rate, and that may be why they stopped recording infections and concentrated on the more accurate measurements of hospitalizations and deaths.  Many of these were not actually hospitalized FOR covid, but for something else, and they got tested in hospital, so this did catch some asymptomatic infections. 

This is what leads me to believe that
in theory, it may be more to try to lessen the severity of a potential infection, rather than to prevent it completely.

Most amazing is that the Charedi and Arab cases are close to nil.
The outbreak was started and spread by unvaccinated teenagers. I think the vast vast majority of charedi teens were infected in the numerous prior waves.

Interesting that this states out of 7,700 positives for COVID in the current wave: only 72 already had COVID and have recovered vs around 3,000 that are fully vaccinated.

That is exactly what has been going on in the US also for the past year, no?

Not revisionist, because I've been saying this all along.

Any reason why Israel isn't first testing people for antibodies before determining whether to give a third shot
(I understand lack of antibodies doesn't indicate waning immunity, but presence of antibodies should indicate continued immunity, shouldn't it?)
More efficient to identify the class of people with waning immunity, and vax them all, rather than testing them one by one.

"On Monday Israel said it would begin offering a third vaccine dose to patients with weakened immune systems....
For now, Israelis who have undergone heart, lung, kidney or liver transplants and cancer patients receiving chemotherapy are among those eligible for a third dose."

There's a significant concern that Delta is different than the other previous strains and will affect even those who have antibodies. The fact that the Arab and Chareidi communities seem unaffected (as of now) would be reassuring.

I saw a report that people who were infected appear to be more protected against Delta than the vaccinated in Israel
