I think I have seen a scraped-out word, but it was years ago that I made my transcripts (I didn't make a note of the location of the scraping) and as far as I remember it was the only one I noticed.
If it is the only one, in a manuscript of 200 folios, then that does say something about the other kinds of corrections.
Torsten, I like the arguments you put forward regarding the kinds of corrections that do exist and what it may say about the text (in terms of being different from corrections one might see in natural language script (or one-to-one substitution of natural language characters)). I think it is worth noting how they work and where they occur.
