We might want to split this discussion or move it to the project thread depending on what Green_goblin wants, but it can't hurt to sum things up to avoid a flame war:
SC you've made at least two broad factual claims, that is to say the translation is too literal and incorrect in places. We have no choice but to dismiss these unless you provide concrete examples, we can give you some text dumps if you'd rather not play through the game itself.
Seihen I know you haven't criticized the retranslation directly, but your posts make it sound like you're giving weight to SC's "too literal" claim without having seen the translation yourself. We can give you the same text dumps if you're interested in having a look.
