To me, this is stating the obvious, but I suppose he's right that a lot of people don't seem to get it (I'm pretty sure Koen gets it).

But I am amazed at how many proposed "solutions" are substitution codes that basically assign the EVA key assignments to most of the Voynich glyphs. In other words, they seem to think that EVA key assignments represent the actual meaning of the glyphs (conflating the script and the underlying structure).
