Definitely anything 6-7 centuries later like vowel markings I would not consider as inspired, whether by Masoretes or Monks. That's why I use an unpointed text in the Interlinear. Also, the oldest manuscripts are unpointed, so I even though it would be easier to recognize the meaning of a word with vowels, it would not be as authentic.
