The editor in me believes that the duty of an editor is to help the creator of a work polish their work to match their vision; often, an outside agent is needed to bring some clarity, excise some murkiness and sharpen what they were trying to say. Unfortunately, the standards of acceptability got in the way of this partnership, and we received a flawed translation. The censored version grew infamous, and I can't wait to read what the author was really trying to say!

Interesting... but Tim's question is a good one. The censored version has become a classic.
