What happens when they find all those lost Greek tragedies? Will we find the authors were more repetitive then they seemed to our ancestors? Will we think better of the dramatists for their inventiveness in coming up with so many plots, or will we think less of the existing works, seeing them as just more of the same?

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

To answer your questions, yes.

Because modern literary criticism (including that of the Classics) is more about the critic than the author.

So there will be a critic to represent every one of your possible reactions.

Victor Davis Hanson excluded, of course, and a few others.

"There are almost certainly more books to be found there." ... He points out that many of the scrolls were discovered in carrying containers arrayed in a line, as if being evacuated towards the sea.

I bet they tried to evacuate the most important scrolls in their collection first. All of those were most likely lost when the first pyroclastic flow hit them, or if they managed to get them out, disappeared over the centuries. Would have been better if they had just left them in place. Of course, they couldn't have known that. I wouldn't be surprised that, if and when the site ever is completely excavated, we won't be disappointed with what wasn't found there.
