Dear third-density-being,
I very appreciate your comments and your advise not to count number. I agree with you that it is not the amount matters in such conversation, although I do think the amount of other-selves may help to let the editor to consider this question again. This is one of the reasons why I initiated this thread of discussion.
As the latest edition is still in the editing process, the possibility that I mentioned before still exists. As long as there is a chance that the text in question can be unchanged, and our arguments are reasonable, I will try my best to prevent the changes.
As to the latest edition which is based on the Re-listening Project, I am fairly sure that it is better and less distorted than the original five books of LOO. (Besides, the new edition will also contain lots of good stuffs, such as glossary, photo gallery, index, and so on.) For more information about the different versions and a way to identify the differences between them, please see the versions page.

Since there was no other new post in the past two weeks, I think it's time for me to send a summary of this ongoing discussion to the editor. Although the support till now is not large, it may be enough for me to seek more help. After all, among those who has already participated in this thread of discussion, there seems to be no one who has reasonable ground for the other viewpoints, which are always welcomed.
Thanks for all who have given attention to this discussion, especially for those who have contributed to this discussion by sharing opinions!
