To this R' Micha replied: < There is an implied "in public". >

And R' Bannett responded: < And why is this nonsense of interest to 
Mesorah? We learn that there is a "karei v'lo ketivei" in the Areivim 
mesorah just as the mesorah of the Tanakh. >

which cannot be improved upon by adding some oral commentary.

But that moves it from Mesorah territory to Avodah territory.
