he would be reluctant to remove material from his corrected Luke which was paralleled in Matthew and/or Mark. I can understand a Marcion interested to follow Mark (being Mark a gentilizing gospel, afterall, in virtue of the principle similis cum similibus ), but I can't understand how Marcion could...
