a muṣḥaf that comes as close as possible to the ʿUṯmānic rasm ‒

Now, that you have seen what "good" editions have made out of the old text, here the same from two "bad" editions: Ottoman from 300 years ago (next to the old text), and Turkish from this century:
I prefer the "Indian" editions, but even Turkish (and Persian) editions are fine.
