You still don't understand what a critical apparatus is, do you? Or the manuscript tradition for that matter. What plain text do you want published, do you realize how many versions of Physica have survived to present day? You don't want any translations or commentary but you seem perfectly fine with one editor choosing what you read.
I found two copies of the OCT of Physica for $50 and $36 online within seconds. Buy secondhand.
If I wanted to quote you I would have used greentext. Pure has shudder quotes. Here you are sneering at the humanities in a thread about Classics and can't even understand English.
As >>24696692 said go find one of the dozen POD slopshops on Amazon and get an OCR ripped from Perseus paperback with smudged pages and typos. Or reach deep into your moneybag and grab a few more shekels for a hardcover, something which probably pains you just to contemplate.
Pic related is a mistaken purchase years ago from a publisher called ArmaVirumque, Apuleius' Metamorphoses. If that is what you're looking for then Amazon will be a gold mine for you.
