It would not be heresy. It is actually the first reasonable thing one should
think of. But, again, it does not seem likely. And what if it was a typo?
Would it really cancel the whole discussion. I don't think so. However, I am
not supporting the kind of typo-reading that McHoul and Willis do in their
*Writing Pynchon*, where they undertake a systematic study of typos as
Freudian slips or something, with much loose Derrida and plenty of freaky
S/Z. It is not that the idea is ridiculous in itself (quiet the opposite,
actually), but, fact is, it seems to lead absolutely nowhere. So, my opinion
is: this is the text we have, this is the text we read, period.
