I've explained very clearly the development of the LXX as we have it - those facts are not in dispute. The most important being that changes were made to it on a number of occasions, not to mention that we do not reliably know who translated the books when or how they came to be a single volume, but we do know that Jews read from 22 scrolls (or as we count them, 39 books). The minor prophets were written on a single scroll for instance. This is confirmed by numerous early sources.
How do you know that it was a mistake?
The full volume of the LXX has 51 books, yet the Catholic Bible has 46 OT books. The eastern Orthodox church includes the book of Odes in their canon, but the RCC excludes it - could you tell me when it was decided to banish it from the scriptures?
There's more variation of the OT canon in Greek than you are admitting to.
