I’d agree this has probably happened to some degree but couldn’t chalk everything up to misunderstanding, especially when you have so much context, combined with millions religious scholars devoting their entire lives to the study of these texts, with unbroken chains of translation, also embodied in human action and tradition.

It would be like if there was a group of people who devoted their entire lives to one Shakespeare play, the translation of that play and performance of that play. Who had preformed the play everyday since it was created.
