The Muratorian 'canon', which I believe you are referencing, could NOT have been used by the Protestants to compile their bible.
Muratori wasn't born until 1672!!!
Also, the Muratorian 'canon' consists of
ONLY new testament books.
Which doesn't explain why Protestant bibles don't have
Tobit,
Judith,
Wisdom,
Sirach,
Baruch, and
First and
Second Maccabees and parts of books
Esther 10:4-16:24, and
Daniel 3:24-90;
13:1-14:42! These are all
old testament books, which are NOT mentioned by Muratori in his "canon".
