One of the big disadvantages of creating an invented alphabet to represent Voynich text is that we don't know which characters might be ligatures and which might be abbreviations. These forms were normal in the middle ages, so there's a strong possibility that they exist in Voynichese.
Is a gallows character one character? Two? or three? Does a tail represent an abbreviation?
If you create the character so it has some of the properties of the actual character, then you're back to basic Voynichese. If you don't include these possibilities, then you may be losing information during the transliteration process.
