And though Tradition is an incredible resource (the blood, sweat and toil of milenia of sincere Christian life and thought), I doubt we could ever accept it as being on par with the Holy Scriptures - bring that the Scriptures are the very breath of God adn Christians, sincere and saintly as they may be, are still fallible humans.

And so I guess that those early Christians who decided the canon of the Scriptures (with or without the Deuterocanonical books) were also fallible humans.

Yup. Just like John the Baptist was fallible - yet he was still allowed to point out the Christ.
