> If you have a BHS, the vowels that surrond the divine name are
unpronouncible, and are meant to be that way.  Supposedly there are some
other MSS manuscripts with a holem/vav instead of just a vav, which makes it
look even more like adonai than even in our BHS.

Unpronounceable? The vowelization seems to mimicry Iao, doesn't it?
