A fair explanation. On the other hand the whole place was overrun with Saturn/Ba'al worshippers who were sacrificing children and their neighbors.

Must not have been many copies out and in use!

More recent archaeology says an Egyptian had pretty well shut the place down just a few decades earlier.

"Archaeology" is imprecise hypothesis driven science. Again you are confusing the secular with matters of faith.

People who lack faith always make that particular mistake.

"Must not have been many copies out and in use!"

But even working on your terms, how many "copies" are needed of an archaelogical relic to establish a "fact" of that science? Why would you require more copies of the Torah? God only gave one to Moses, and that one founded Judaism and Christianity.

If you had ever seen a Torah written, you might perceive the matter of accuracy diffently. Do you have any idea of the cost of this meticulous process?
