Well, this is not a conclusion. This was your assumption from the start.
To come to a conclusion you would need to have some evidence, and your argument across the several posts has been that the evidence is unclear and you need better scans.
From the available scans, one would have to conclude that the word starts don't actually match.
There is some superficial similarity in two of the three parts.
I have looked at lots of T/O maps and in their context both seem to fit as T/O maps. Finding any other medieval drawings that have the same shape is very difficult. Of course it is possible they are not T/O maps. It is possible that the plants in the herbal section are not really plants, so anything is possible. However I think it is very likely they are T/O maps and as far as I have seen nobody else has proposed an alternative explanation based on illustrations from other sources or compelling arguments.
