    The 1894 Scrivener TR is my choice.
    It represents the best distilling (IMO) of the known mss of the Traditional Text of the apostolic (Pauline) Byzantine churches.

    At the start, I didn't think the votes would be so evenly distributed.

    Yeah. I think textual criticism is not something about which most are informed or perhaps that interested.

    But gooe idea for a poll.

    I thought one position might dominate, but I had no idea which it might be. You're welcome, AF!

    Thank you, FA! It seems you are correct that this subject is not well understood. I did not have much interest in this subject until a couple of years ago.
