[B-Greek] Did Munnich omit and why?

I realize that this is not a textual criticism forum, but I am unable to
get onto a good textual criticism list due to my filter.  Hopefully I
can draw a little interest to this question.  In the Old Greek version
of Daniel, I think Munnich  has omitted a portion of Daniel 8:16 KAI
EKALESE KAI EIPE GABRIHL SUNETISON EKEINON THN ORASIN.  Or I think he at
least put them into brackets.  I have Zieglers edition of the Gottingen
so I am unsure about Munnich.  All MS evidence supports it, but I do
know that J.A. Montgomery claims that it was added in by a later scribe
to comply with the Hebrew.  I don't understand why, other than a few
just have a gut feeling about.  Does anyone have any idea why this is
thought?
 
Thank you!
