I like the discussion on this topic which appears in the first 20 or pages of Al Khulasatu al Bahiya fi Mathahib al Hanafia...

That discussion isn't part of the book. It is part of the "Muhaqqiqs" muqammimah to the Dar al-Kutub al-Ilmiyyah edition.
His muqaddimah is a copy and paste job, mainly from Sh. Ali Jumah's "al-Madkhal ila al-Madhahib al-Ara'ba'ah", which in turn is a copy and paste job from a few other works!
They copy exactly what is in their sources, with all the mistakes, without any mention of the source most of the time!

Ml. Abd al-Hay wrote a commentary to al-Jami as-Saghir titled "an-Nafi al-Kabir".

It is in this book that he mentioned al-Muhit to be a weak book, however he later retracted this statement and clearly mentioned his retraction in the footnotes of an-Nafi' al-Kabir.
Yet, Sh. Ali Jumah quotes Ml. Abd al-Hay's entire discussion on weak books, including the classification of al-Muhit as weak and does not mention the retraction!
Then the turkish "Muhaqqiq" of al-Khulasah al-Bahiyyah "Ilyas Qablan" comes along and copies exactly what Sh. Ali Jumah mentioned, without listing him as the source and he also didn't mention Ml. Abd al-Hay's retraction!

It is a sad mess.
