Thanks, Marco!
Yes, you are right. Actually I am mixing two problems. My main motivation for making this thread was your point (2). I rather wonder if the [a] followed by [i] is not the form VM minims take in certain contexts. So [ai] could be like "m" or "n". If the first minim takes a leading serif, it would explain why there is always a (pseudo?) [a] before [i].
