It is over-generalization to claim that the Byzantine manuscripts are monolithic and in agreement in all their readings.
Wilbur Pickering noted that those “who has collated any number of MS have all demonstrated that the Byzantine bulk of MSS is by no means monolithic. There are any number of streams and rivulets. (Recall that F. Wisse posited thirty-four groups within the Byzantine bulk, with seventy subgroups.)” (God Has Preserved, p. 245). Stephen Brown observed: “The Byzantine texttype in particular can be broken into a number of groups, showing it to be anything but monolithic” (McCollum, Solid Rock Greek NT, p. 715).
KJV defender Edward F. Hills admitted: "There are some readings on which the manuscripts are almost equally divided, making it difficult to determine which reading belongs to the Traditional Text. Also in some of the cases in which the Textus Receptus disagrees with the Traditional Text it is hard to decide which text to follow" (KJV Defended, p. 224).
