I had the privilege of being interviewed on Andrew Case's podcast about the HBCE Psalms edition, digital and eclectic editions, and textual criticism of the Psalms.
Nice! For what it's worth, my experience (as someone who prefers to stick pretty close to the MT) is that MT-Psalms has a rather high rate of error relative to its size (not as many errors as in Samuel, but more than most books).
Anecdotally, that could be. It's hard to measure. There are a fair number of real (mostly minor) variants in the Greek versions. But even when the textual tradition is unanimous, there are often still problematic passages that raise suspicions of early corruption.
