Not a matter of better writing, but of more accurate translation.

For the record, I’ve been saying the Lord’s Prayer all my life and I would find any change to be jarring and uncomfortable, even if it is more accurate.

He isn’t saying he wants to change God’s words. He’s saying some translations have inaccurately given the impression that God actively leads us into temptation.
