We can have some hope to test specific claims of extensive, specific interpolation--like we did with 'shorter'/'longer' Romans in this thread.

It's the small, little, occasional, not-so-many (or not sure where?) interpolation hypotheses that get you. No way to deal with that without going old-school.
