The problem with such a discussion is that it goes from A to Z to Omega to IHS. It takes me too much time to comment properly, which I will not attempt.
@JKP. I state you are incorrect regarding capital Omega. What bold statements you make often, based on your own experience or knowledge but there are no references. Your Images from things, although very nice, are not proof of such.
Your findings are probably based on LATIN MANUSCRIPTS. I have many Coptic and Greek manuscripts where Latin was NOT used. In those manuscripts Latin characters were very uncommon, but it does not mean that Latin was very uncommon in that period and place!
