 Davidsch in the subject asked a question about “2” (Fig. 5) You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. 

My answer is this: this ligature is the right side of the bench when the apostrophe is attached to the right leg.
I think that this example should be analyzed together with example (6), where an additional feature is written after a similar (with an apostrophe) right foot. (I previously gave examples where the right foot of the bench is “i” - eva)
Having raised other similar examples, I came across an interesting case on You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (example 1).
Earlier, I counted it as “2” (in Davidsch’s interpretation), but with a good increase it is clearly visible that “i” - eva (or, most likely, “|”) is written on the first pass, like the other characters on this line, and the upper part is added with dark ink in the second pass. (this is similar to the sickle ligature (2))
And I think here the intentional miss of this hook (continued to the left).
Let's go down two lines below. Here, a similar left-shifted hook is tied to “e” - eva (3).
My explanation of these features is as follows: the hook is the symbol “J” (the right side of “n, b” - eva),  and writing it at the top with an offset indicates the reverse order of reading strokes.
 
This is supported by the presence on this page of another ligature with the reverse order of writing strokes (4). Here the strokes are written ך + e. In normal spelling, these elementary strokes form eva - “o” = e + ך.

Example 1 can be qualified as an unsuccessful fix for EVA-S on EVA-g.
Example 2 - strikethrough (deletion from the text) of EVA-s.
Example 3 - accidentally touching a pen while writing "s".
However, if we consider the entire sequence of examples 1-4, we can assume that by adding additional elements to the base “s”, artifact -glyphs are obtained. (Which may represent individual phonemes / syllables).
In the first example, “)” is added (which can be equivalent to eva-y with an apostrophe at the top (there are several such examples)), in the second + “|’ ’”, in the third + eva-e, in the fourth + a horizontal line.
In example 5 it is clearly seen that at first the author wrote eva -“c”, then he circled the left foot of the bench (e), wrote the mirror “e” and added an apostrophe.

Those are some good examples, Wladimir.

The 19r example might be the messiest glyph in the whole manuscript.  

The 25v example is very interesting, I think. It almost looks like a cursive Hebrew letter. There are a couple of others that are similar.

The example I give below contradicts three popular statements at once.
1 / there are no corrections in the manuscript.
2 / gallows t, k are equivalent.
3 / when generating meaningless text, the choice of the symbol used, (when changing) - is random.
First, the gallows “k” was written (such a word is on the line above). Then there was a change. But it was not an ordinary hook that was added, but a disproportionately large loop.

Nice. After following the many discussions on this site, I don't believe any of the 3 statements.

I made a selection of the (most obvious) lame gallows (code 244 v101).
There may be several explanations for the existence of such gallows. For example, a clerk in the process of writing the gallows P, F changed his mind and wrote K, T.
But I prefer to assume that the right leg can connect to another glyph “e” at the base of the string, just as the left leg of the gallows sometimes does.
Separately, it should be noted that the lameness of the gallows is observed in words with “identical roots” (highlighted by rectangles). I described a similar observation in long benches when the glyph “c” is written with a gap. #14 You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

Thanks for posting those, Wladimir. I think there might even be a few more (I'm collecting them also).

Some of them look like the writer might be trying to hide a small c in the right leg of the gallows. Perhaps they are related to the bench characters that have an extra c-shape underneath the bench.

I think I figured out what the weird 8 by You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
The bottom of the glyph is exactly the same as the “c” in the next word choly. There are several cases in the text when full-fledged glyphs eva-s, r, o, l, y, v are written on the second floor. The most explicit You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. .
28v says c + a. The "a" character is added (most likely) when checking text. “A” had to be written at the top, because if you write it at the bottom, the space between the words disappears.

When I found example 2, I thought it was fixing eva-s to g. But when I found more examples 1 and 3, I began to doubt. Are these not separate ligatures, differing in the way they attach the parenthesis to the s and r characters.
The parenthesis (168 v101 code) is often written separately with the e (6) character, but the transcription defines these 2 characters as “y”. The parenthesis also occurs independently, without eva-e (5, 15), as well as on the 2nd floor (11). (in my previous post I pointed out that many symbols are found on the second floor)
In example 7, the parenthesis is attached to the full eva-o.
Example 10 should be transcribed ") Khey".
There are combinations with a horizontal bar (8, 9) and a dot (13).
Let us consider separately example 4. It is not written eva-y + apostrophe here. This is eva-b + “)”. “Apostrophe” in eva-b is written from bottom to top, so if y + apostrophe were written, then the beginning of the apostrophe (yellow arrow) should be written in dark ink from a parenthesis. In this regard, I have a comment on the display of code 191 v101 - the apostrophe is raised too high (I did not meet it in this form, maybe I missed it? (If this is not an example with 18v, where there is a large gap - 140 eva)).
Example 14 has a double parenthesis.
In example 12, the bracket is added to the bench, similar to how eva-e is added to the bench with a gap.
The whole set of examples suggests that the parenthesis symbol is an independent glyph in all spellings?
