I like the King James version because the guys prepping it did not mind leaving it a bit "raw" and with a lack of elegance when all the pieces didn't naturally fall into place. Like having pieces of a jigsaw puzzle where the punch blade was a bit dull, so some pieces had little extra stuff attached. It feels like KJ boys held an underlying assumption that they were not up to the challenge of knowing all the time exactly how to trim those pieces. So they settled for leaving the extra on, trusting God would take it from there.
That's helpful for me, because it keeps some clues stuck on passages I would otherwise be even more clueless about.
