Even the work on varying girsaos is quite an old business, and the chochmas
Yisroel people have no monopoly on this stuff.

I am doing Pirkei R. Eliezer and teh Eshkol edition has a peirush that
shows  from Hanoch to Noach [re: sod ho'ibbur]   is  missing a generation
and goes into an entire  girsa dissertation.

Rashi/Tosafos/Bach/Gra/Ya'vetz/Reshash to name a few were very involved in
girsa 'fixing" Rambam reportedly wsinto girsa "sifting" and apparently
chekced out varying girsaos for Talmud and I would assume Mishna also.  The
Kafich edition of Rambam's Mishnayos is based upon the Rambam's own ksav yad
as much as possible.


Much of the modern girsaos stuff on the Rambam's Mishneh Torah is largely
based upon Teimani Tradtional texts and not on Wissenshaft

AIUI, Rabinozitz of Dikdukei Soferim on the Talmud was not a follower of
Chochmas Yisroel either, but I may be wrong on this one.
