Choice of glyphs

[Koen G]

I was thinking about how a full set of numbers could be constructed from Voynich glyphs and it's not too hard to imagine one that's fairly rational.

I was thinking something like this as well. We're not used to the medieval way of writing 4 and 5, but we do pick up on the "8" and "9". To the medieval scribe's eye, it must have looked even more number-heavy than it does to us.
