There is no difference between the Massoretic dots and the consonantal text,
as far as questioning them. Both come from the same source, both were
transmitted by the same people, and both were susceptible to similar
textual problems, and linguistic developments.
The fact is that the accuracy of both must be evaluated appropriately
after a full understanding of what the text conveys in the current
form is achieved.
