After this new round of asking for specifics, with the explicit or implicit criticism of the theory that would be deemed "not very well formulated" if it does not include all the details of how to generate perfect Voynichese from scratch, I would like to express my support for Torsten Timm's theory even though I don't think it is the only one that can account for (a part of) the facts, and I also believe that the facts should be better characterized before one attempts to explain them.
In my understanding and opinion, it is not necessary to have specific instructions for the initialization of an auto-copying process: it was not and needs not be performed by a computer. The lines and paragraphs may have been written in any order anyway, so there is no need to start a page on the first line and use only vords written on the same page as a reference for initialization.
The theory of evolution in Darwin's time did not specify the mechanisms of evolution, either. They were later discovered by geneticists and molecular biologists. Torsten Timm's theory does not specify exactly how vords evolve and what the (changing) constraints are, exactly. Only general guidelines and examples are given, to demonstrate the feasibility. The principle is the same for vords and for genes passed to the next generation: copy with some (non-random or semi-random) modification and selection. Timm is the Darwin of Voynichology!
