Joseph Smith always claimed that the translation was performed by the "gift and power of God." So which translation method is more "believable"?
So both methods use seer stones, and both methods may have used the hat to block out light.
Which method is more "believable"? Ultimately, one must accept or reject the idea that the text of the Book of Mormon was revealed to Joseph Smith through revelation, by the "gift and power of God," regardless of the rather unbelievable details of the exact instruments and method used to achieve this.
