For me the idea of isolating a percentage of Voynichese that does not satisfy a lot of the common features that are cited as structural features of the language would be interesting. It is probably the case that it is the same subset of words that don't fit with core-mantle-crust as don't fit with the observations about glyph pair entropy as also don't fit with the curve-line system as don't fit with various other commonly discussed "properties" of Voynichise. When one talks about notions like auto-copying we are talking about an alleged common feature, but not a Universal feature. My sense is that we rarely talk about universal phenomenon when it comes to Voynichese as I get the impression that in most cases of a property we can find Voynichese words that are counter examples. Obviously given my line of thinking I am most interested in the Voynichese words that do not fit these patterns as I think they are probably where the meaning lies.
