Excerpt from Some Abbreviations Unrecognized or Misunderstood in the Text of the Jerusalem Talmud
Paradoxically as it may sound, it is nevertheless true that the scribe who discarded abbreviations caused more difficulties than he who made free use of them. In their attempt to improve upon the text before them, the scribes tried to explain the abbreviations by writing them out in full, but as penmanship is rarely combined with learning, they very often failed miserably. Many a corrupt text is the result of this kind of scribal criticism, and the less authoritative a book was, the more was its text exposed to the whims of the scribe.
