On page 155 of Aland and Aland's _The Text of the New Testament, we read:
"In fact, the 'Majority Text" (using the term in a purely pragmatic sense)
with its symbol <Old English M> (which is used solely as a space-saving device
in Nestle-Aland26) may yet prove to hold a multiple significance for the
history of the text (cf. the high number of type 1/2 readings in a good many
manuscripts). But Barbara Aland's views on this cannot be tested
systematically until the critical apparatus of Nestle-Aland26 has been put on
tape (which is now being done) and been examined by computer from all the
necessary perspectives."
Does anyone on this listserver know what Barbara Aland's views that are
referred to here but not explained are exactly?
