In fact, this type of alternative and inconsistent spelling (though maybe not quite as adventurous) should probably be expected.
I wouldn't call it part of a cipher....
When I occasionally try to read German texts from 15th-16th Century books and MSs, they come across as something like the above, compared to modern German.
Are there any sample transcriptions of texts with irregular spelling and/or abbreviations available for analysis? They would be quite valuable.
Spelling and abbreviations are plausible justifications for some of the word variability in the VM, but i'm skeptical.
