But how do beginners know which texts are slightly less than perfect, and which ones so bad that they will have no pedagogical value?

In my opinion, beginners should not feel uncomfortable tackling any
of the existing texts as if they were correct. If they aren't quite perfect
in some detail, what's the problem? You will eventually figure out what
the correct form is, and a mistake here and there can even be helpful
in the learning process: if you find a discrepancy between two texts,
you have to investigate and figure out why they differ and which one
is the correct form, or maybe whether they are both valid.
Remember that each and every one of the currently more advanced
Lojbanists had even less material to work with, so it is not an
unsurmountable task.
