Yes. Both are good editions, but there is no such things as an
URTEXT edition of K. 622. Barenreiter and Henle have tried to
interfere as little as possible and there is merit to that. But
don't think that out there somewhere there is an authentic
edition of 622.

AFAIK Pamela Weston's versions tend to be pretty bad examples of
editorial intervention in the text.

My impression is that the best versions of K622 available are the
ones
published in the Bärenreiter and Henle Urtext editions. Both
include
the traditional text and a basset clarinet version.
