The resources available for this kind of work are limited, this is a new kind of x-ray that presumably has limited machines available and a high operating cost.

And I didn't say uninteresting. The authour of the letters purposefully removed the lines from the historical record for modesty's sake. It's similar to digging through a celebrity's trash to find salacious gossip.

How to know before finding out?


From the context of the letters, the rest of the words and where they were found. He seems to have only edited a few lines throughout letters. At most, checking one of the letters would have been enough.


Well, now they have used a new novel system to bypass the censorship

If you fail to see the value of how this novel way can be used for other letters beyond this initial test case, then there's not much else to say I feel

This initial test case based on a technique already in practice on other sources of writing? None of my posts have dismissed the technology, just it's use in this case.
