But it's not in the original source, and putting in without
parentheses indicates it's an original reading, and that is the
*worst* kind of thing to do in this kind of music, as it removes any

Quite true. When I posted, I simply answered the question as stated,
but I was wrong. The naturals (if used) should be neither regular
nor cautionary. They should be editorial and placed over the notes
in question, making it clear that they are not in the source.
