To me the Pali Canon isnt the ultimate word of Buddha, obviously certain changes and errors would creep in, but it does know where the focus is
I always take into account who is speaking in the suttas, and to whom, and in what context.

N.B. I exclude the Abhidhamma I have seen Ajahn Buddhadasa recommend that we throw the "abhidhamma" into the sea. I like that very much....
