"So there are BY sermons that really would be scripture if he had a chance to proof read and spell-check them? "
There are BY sermons that would be as correct as scripture if he did proof them, but that alone would not make them scripture. To become scripture they would also have to be presented to the church and accepted by the First Presidency, Quorum of the 12 and the general membership by sustaining vote in a General Conference. Revisions in existing scripture are accepted the same way.
Just because something is true doesn't mean it must become cannon. I don't expect there to ever be a request for a sustaining vote for the truth that the earth goes around the sun.

Did your church ever do this for the Bible? If so, which version? The KJV or the JSV?
And if it is scripture, then why don't you believe it?

***How many times have articles in D&C been revised? At which revision / edition did these become Scripture?***
Want to take a shot at this one?
***I don't expect there to ever be a request for a sustaining vote for the truth that the earth goes around the sun. ***
How about life on the sun?
