Removing the text layer from their output PDF allows them to redact elements like the stuff on page vi of the Executive Summary, with no hope of recovery. For security they deliberately reduce it down to an images-only PDF file.

That makes them have to re-OCR the whole thing, with all the errors that inevitably show up when you do that. And nobody proof-reads the resulting new PDF text layer.

Thus, "FBI Director Corney."
