Or, they simply translated the Text that was before them. They may have not had the leeway or freedom to choose a variant from the apparatus. They are expert Translators. Some of the very best I am sure. But they probably are not textual experts. That is just an opinion of mine. Nothing against them.

I am quite sure that there are portions of the TR Greek text that is closer to the originals, but also sure same can be said of the Critical Greek text

It's true the New Testament text between variants are the same Greek text.

Some 87.3% [or maybe even 99%] of mss omitted: 1 John 5:7-8, in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth,
Not simply the CT.
