>Plus, I would have already endorsed the RGNT as a whole, 

Is that any different than "endorsing UBS4 as a whole"? And that when
you don't (obviously) agree with all the textual decisions of the UBS
text (since you made your own choices in NASB)? *Would it be any
different if the RGNT reflected your decisions in & the text underlying
NASB???*

For that matter, how many of us (i.e., profs, at least) ever endorse
*any* text (Greek or translation) "as a whole"? I've not seen a perfect
one yet--though there are some good ones. That I use an NIV (or NASB, or
ESV, or...) in class isn't a carte blanche endorsement--and students
know that. I've taught my students for years the advantages of UBS vs.
NA texts, which to use for which, and why they might want to buy one or
the other. And the same for translations. I'm not sure I seen the reason
for concern now that we add another option to the mix of Greek texts
available.
