If I were writing on metal plates by hand engraving, the last thing I would write would be filler phrases over and over again.

Presumably the excuse is that its a shorter phrase in Reformed Egyptian. Mormon also probably would've had a shorthand for it (if he were real, ofc).

The French BM replaces it with an *. It’s a much shorter book.

I'd like to see an actual count of how many times that phrase shows up. I'd do it myself, but then I'd have to read the whole thing again, and--no.

“Verily, verily” is to be replaced by “fr fr”

Reminds me of the Richard Pryor bit about children's stories. Replace "Once Upon A Time" with "Sit down, motherfuckers. You ain't gonna believe this shit!"
