I don't believe modern versions now rely solely upon W & H's work for their NT text any more. Instead, it's generally made from an eclectic mix, with W & H's work being considered among others.

Yes, as new NA even included some Bzt witnessing as to variants!

I think it's more of the fact they just haven't read his works. I mentioned to several kjvo that I've read Dean Burgon and their response was along the lines of "So you know how many holes W/H text has, and we do use facts to prove that they are wrong and the kjv is perfect." But I know for a fact they have never actually read them. I told them that Burgon said if you include 1 John 5:7 you call into question the entirety of the New Testament text and they were shocked he said that, along with the fact he attempted his own Greek text.

Kjv only has evolved from believing it's the best translation (which compared to the RV I'd have to agree) to it's the only translation and perfect. But you can see it evolve especially when you compare Dean Burgons and J Edward Hill's works, which are pretty solid (especially Burgons work), compared to let's say Ruckman and Riplinger, which are just a joke. However most people will claim both groups and believe they argued the same thing which they clearly didn't. Even hill who argued that the kjv should be the only translation showed there were certainly poor translations in it and often agreed with the margin writing. It's just plain ignorance imo, either that or they just don't care and try to rely on the fact that you know nothing on the subject and in that case Rickman's arguments sound somewhat convincing.

The problem is that KJVO refuse to accept the 1611 team used variants and had them in the margins, and took some renderings in from Latin Vulgate, and at times we do not know where, from what sources they brought in their rendering from!

The late Dr. Thomas Cassidy, formerly an Admin. here, was a member of the Burgon Society until he found its main purpose was to make Burgon a poster boy for the KJVO myth, not dealing that much with the truth of what Burgon believed. Burgon eas not at all against a new English Bible translation, long as it was an accurate translation from authentic manuscripts.

He would not have accepted any MV off Critical Greek text, but would have the Nkjv, and versions from the MT!
