to Kitzur List
The Kitzur S"A in Hilchos Y"T 98:1 states that one may burn a fire on Y"T even for non-food needs
YET
A Yahrzeit candle is NOT considered a need and therefore it should not be kindled [by a Jew] on Y"T.
Why is the Yahrzeit Candle not construed as a legitimate "Tzorech"?
See M'tzudah Edition pp. 697-698
Fn 15 citing among others the K'sav Sofer 65 and the Bei'ur Halachah 514:5

Pathos, not reason, is more and more accepted as the way to live a normal life.
