I fully agree, and confirm that is correct.
I propose that d is more frequent on lines that contain (or start with) p or f.
If that is true, no conclusion or implication would reveal us anything. If you have a suggestion I would love to hear that.
As written before, somewhere, I made an analysis of all initial Page letters and words + initial Paragraph letters, in the VMS as well as in Culpeper's herbal.
Based on that I could not form any valid hypothesis.
On the [f and p] I tried to publish and start a discussion here a year ago, but some people were furious that I wanted to start a hypothetical discussion on letters.
So, then I immediately removed the thread. Anyway, it is useless to discuss letters here, because there are so many different ways to look at them (as you can already see)
In my opinion, every participant in the discussion is obligated to read and understand the field of all other participants. Otherwise everybody is preaching to the choir.
To me: [d] is not "dependent".
(In my "letter dependency research" -unpublished because still ongoing- most angles, such as, letters, words, positions, etc. were investigated, based on that I formed this conclusion.)
