Marco, as you might expect the Edinburgh decoration had drawn my attention as well, I was writing a reply but then saw you beat me to it 
Would this indicate that the Edinburgh drawings are somehow closer to an original, and the others are descendant of a MS with specific abstractions? In the stemma you provided earlier, I'd be inclined to add a node all the way on top rather than somewhere at the bottom. The Edinburgh MS on one side and all the others on the other.
Additionally, it seems like the Morgan preserves two rows of figures where the others have one. I say "preserves" because it seems less likely that the copyist would invent an additional row. Would this be similar in the Paris MS?
