Missing duet to La Serva Padrona - Pergolesi

Hi, folk;

considering that La Serva Padrona (http://imslp.org/wiki/La_serva_padrona_ ... ull_Scores) originally ended with the duetto "Contento tu sarai" (look at https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_serva_ ... ll.27opera) and that "Per te io ho nel core" came from Il Flaminio only after the composer's death and unfortunately became usually inserted at the place of the original finale, I noted the original duetto only appears at the vocal scores, and is absent on the sheets and other parts; is not it better to upload the original ending as well -- putting aside the other duet as optional -- updating then the compilation? I also noted "Per te io ho nel core" is absent at Il Flaminio; provided we already have it at La Serva Padrona, couldn't we transfer it back to its original form?

Thank you for the attention, and my question is now subject to your mercy.
