Usually it could be understood due to a sense of a text and construction of a sentence. Lucƺ is not an exclusion, it can mean You are not allowed to view links.

I think scribes usually chose an abbreviation for one of them. Probably, it depends on local traditions and own habits of scribes.
Logically, the horizontal bar in lucˉƺ may mean the dropped “n”, so it can be the verb lucent (3th person, present, plural).
Thank you, Searcher! Well researched and clearly presented!
"lucent" now seems to me an excellent candidate, though interpreting the whole sentence remains an apparently impossible challenge.
