“The yeshiva hasn't raised money in a year; it's muchrach that they will have to close soon.” (Weiser)

"Perhaps the reason is that without sitting there's no kviyus and you shouldn't be making any bracha, which would not be the case on Shabbos/Yom Tov when it's muchrach that you'll stay for the seuda (see Aruch Hashulchan O"C 166:1)?" (source)
