I agree with your observation Nablator.
I guess my underlying problem is about the basis for statistics about labels when trying to figure out labelese.
If we are relying on the voynichese.com site's classifications, which as I understand it is based on the Takahashi, but that it is not really clear whether some of the labels counted are even labels, or if others have not been counted when they should be, then how can we reliably use this data to compile statistics about label properties?
What was the basis for these sources to classify some of these words as labels and others not? Was it just completely arbitrary?
