It is clear to me that the Confederate source of the material is now working overtime to try to remove the distortions from the resultant work and minimize the distortions that it has caused in those seeing the Law of One. I would further point out that by examining the resultant work in such detail vis-a-vis a much less distorted work called the Law of One, and thereby questioning the entire process of Council review of material to be transmitted, thereby creating suspicion of the least distorted work available at time present, we are in reality creating this poor Social Memory Complex a lot more work.
I say, let's give him a break and stop dwelling on his mistake (though I'm sure Ra wouldn't refer to it as one)
Why, you don't want to help me figure out next how it is that the moon is self-luminous? (I am listening to the collective sigh coming from said social memory complex...)
In all seriousness, I think you have the right idea and we should probably let it rest. Quite likely there is simply no way to rectify the two works, The LOO & Oahspe. A large part of me at the same time rebels saying "Nay, Nay! Make sense of it all!". But since we are indeed in a world of unknowing I shall attempt contentment. Having earlier decided that TLOO is not an authoritative work, I am released from my self imposed requirement for complete, ah shall I say, truthiness (to borrow from the one known as Colbert).
Perhaps I can fall back on a theory of mine from earlier this year about such contradictions (as seen above) and information about self-luminous moons and pyramid-thought construction as "free-will fail safes" as it were.
Eh, who knows. Fun food for through at any rate! (to the Oahspe-SMC who is listening in to this thread, please accept our collective apologies)
