“They have been investigating Christianity as an alternative to Mormonism”

That’s like saying I’m investigating spaghetti as an alternative to Italian food.

So if they abandon an Italian restaurant that bills itself as the "one and only true Italian restaurant on the face of the earth" (your parallel as applied to Mormon Doctrine & Covenants 1:30), they wouldn't be an "apostate" to true Italian restaurant food, after all? That would just be a religious myth made up wholesale by that Italian restaurant Inc?

They really could get true Italian restaurant food apart from that restaurant chain? And that Italian restaurant "bible" of how to run a restaurant chain...it just flat out lied in its D&C 1:30 equivalency passage? Which means the restaurant founder was a false Italian restaurant "prophet" -- all because he wanted to just market his own chain?

Now that makes more sense.

No, it is like saying you are investigating spaghetti an an alternative to dog food.

No; it's more like,"I'm now eating gourmet stuff since I found out the other was garbage."

<rolleyes> Sometimes a witticism successfully disguises a bold lie. More usually it reveals the boldness of a liar.

No it's not.
Mormonism's founder looked at Christianity, and found it lacking; so he made up his own religion.

Mormonism is not a Christian religion any more than Islam is a Christian religion.
