The approach is good, however it is not clear how exactly to apply it.

Wladimir's "Dulov's ratio" (as I personally call it) is a related concept.
Perhaps it would be useful to prepare a "key-value" dictionary of Voynich where each vord ("key") would have its affinity to a topic described ("value").
In particular, it would be of interest to learn whether a vord and its respective prefixed vords (e.g. "tol" on one hand and "otol" and "qotol" on the other hand) generally exhibit the same thematic affinity. That would shed light on whether prefixes are some kind of operators (like case modifiers or prepositions) or not.
