Does the buyer have the option to annul the contract if a measured bulk good (sabra) is found to be deficient in quantity?

There are two opinions. The first grants the buyer the option to annul, which is the position of Shafi'i, as the object is deficient, warranting annulment, similar to a deficiency in quality or in non-bulk items. The second opinion denies the buyer this option because a deficiency in quantity does not constitute a defect in the remaining measure, unlike other types of deficiencies.
