How Many TC Errors in This Statement?

We’ve played this game before. Someone submits a statement about TC from the BBC or some other news media, and we count how many errors are contained therein. But this time, it comes from a Hendrickson publication entitled, Formation of the Bible: The Story of the Church’s Canon  (Lee Martin McDonald). Extra credit points if anyone can help me understand how the statements could possibly be right,

As a result of the more recent discovery of many more ancient biblical manuscripts, all early translations, namely those produced before 1993, are essentially out of date—an unfortunate consequece of reassembling a text closer to the biblical original than was possible earlier. With the publication of the most recent editions of critical scholarly texts of the New Testament—the United Bible Society’s 5th Edition of the Greek New Testament  (2013) and the soon to be published Nestle/Aland 28th edition (2012) of the Greek Testament—we draw closer yet to the original text of the New Testament, but it would be a mistake to believe that we have reached that goal. There are some challenging and difficult passages to unravel, to which biblical scholars can offer very tenuous, possible solutions, but certainty is not yet available.

Since almost all modern translations of the New Testament depend on these two modern texts of the Greek New Testament, translations dating before these editions are not as reliable or as accurate and do not accurately reflect the latest understanding of what the biblical writers wrote....  p. 134.

Nestle-Aland 28 at SBL in Chicago!?

Reading my blogpost about the impending release of NA28, Henricksons Publishers representative Bobby Z. Koduvalil contacted me and offered some more information about date and other matters. I am going to cite him message:

 The release date of NA28 is September as stated in the German Bible Society catalog.  At that time, books should ship to the USA to Hendrickson’s warehouse.  We are a distributor of titles published by the German Bible Society.  I have every expectation that books will be available at ETS Milwaukee and AAR/SBL Chicago (and hopefully also to university and seminary bookstores) in November, and the staff of the GBS and Hendrickson are working diligently to make this happen.  With that said, the release date is listed as December by various online retailers, as you noted.
-          I have listed below the Hendrickson ISBNs for NA28 (the hardcover ISBN below is the one listed by CBD and Amazon in the links in your post):
Blue hardcover: ISBN 9781619700307
Flexisoft Black (what most call imitation): ISBN 9781619700314
Flexisoft Blue: ISBN 9781619700321
With Greek-English dictionary: ISBN 9781619700468
Greek-English edition NA28/NRSV/REB: ISBN 9781619700352
-          The NA28/NRSV/REB edition is not expected to be available at SBL, but hopefully soon after, in early 2013.
-          Unfortunately for Dr. Robinson and many others, there will not be a Großdruck edition.  I pleaded for one, and will continue to do so.  I hope that it will be considered for the next printing.
-          My understanding is that the Trobisch introduction will be made available in English at some point in the future.  I expect that if and when an English edition is completed, it will be available from Hendrickson.

Update 10 July: Koduvalil tells me in a second message: "The English translation of the Trobisch introduction will be available from the SBL, and not from Hendrickson, if and when it is to be published.  My apologies for my oversight. "
