Torsten, I have not read your paper but what I like of your analysis is the freedom you give to the scribe. Of course there are a rigid word structure and many regularities. We all can see that, but there is also a certain degree of freedom in the creation of glyphs chains and that's why there are no repeated phrases.
Your theory reinforces my idea that the script is not a verbal language but a symbolic code. Each glyph is a symbol, something tha we can represent mentally, and the scribe has some freedom to combine the symbols respecting certain rigid rules.
