I emend 1 Tim 2:15 to say if they (each) …, as salvation is by individuals, in community for sure, but by each individual’s choice.

Based on Wallace’s 3rd option for an anarthrous noun of it describing a group of at least 1 member, I see it as POSSIBLE that there were a (small) group of (deceived) women that Paul wants taught and while being taught to not teach. This possibility does not change the application for today, whether it was one woman or a small group of women.
