        It was explained to me by someone I know who I trust. I would have to ask them or go looking. Unfortunately I haven’t been in contact with them so that’s not much of an option for the foreseeable future. As I said it is my understanding, I was led to believe this isn’t really something to argue about as the were entire books that no longer exist in modern versions. This was any 15 years ago and you are the first person to challenge that assertion I’ve made.

        Sorrey if I’m mistaken or was misled
