I'm not assuming anything about your personal beliefs or affiliation...(I do seem to remember you as being Christian/religious)

I don't have any personal opinions about "Intentional errors in the Latin texts ", but I have seen documented and explained many confusions, errors and omissions in various translations & versions....from the Aramaic to the dockyards Greek used when the scriptures were brought to Rome.

(I was raised saying 'trespasses', and had to work to change it when someone decided that was confusing.)

I do remember reading about various Gospels that were 'left out' for various reasons; the most famous being Thomas, Barnabus, Nicodemus and several others. Many scholars seem to think they were relevant, but despaired of getting them included after centuries of a Bible where even translation revisions brought complaints and cries of 'sacrilege!".
