One thing I forgot to mention is that for those (either Twelvers or Orientalists) who obsess about the written aspect (whether of the Quran or of Ahadith), it seems as if they totally discard the fact that Islam has been passed down to us mostly by oral means, with the writings as an aid. For such people it seems that only things that are written down are true and everything else is false, which is totally against what true Islam teaches.
