Yes, I think it is important that people know this also, and I thank you for pointing it out.
I also think that the textual history of The Peshitta is rather unique and extraordinary. I do believe a good critical collation of the mss.
would and has produced a perfect edition of the original, unlike what exists for Greek mss., or even what exists for the Hebrew Tanach, for that matter, though I expect we can do better for the Hebrew than what has been done thus far.

Shlama Akhi David:
Could you make clear to the forum just how a good critical collation of the manuscripts would and has produced a perfect edition of the original.
Specifically, which manuscripts are you referring to?
Shlama,
Stephen
