I don't think that touches the idea that God DID, in fact, lay down one complete and perfect scripture.

Of course it touches on it. If one complete and perfect scripture existed, it would be perfect enough to exist forever in a literal form. It also would say so in the scripture itself.

God gave us the Church. She gives us the Holy Scripture, the holy Liturgy, the Holy Tradition and the living grace of God.

FK: "I don't think that touches the idea that God DID, in fact, lay down one complete and perfect scripture."

I didn't mean that I'm sure that all the different books have ever been perfectly assembled in one place in their absolute original form. (I don't know.) I meant that at the time of the original writings of each of the books, that they individually were perfect in that moment. The Bible says that all scripture is God-breathed, so unless God's breath has a foul odor, it would seem that the originals were perfect.
