I think that's probably a scribal variant, having to do with whether the pen is lifted or not between the ascender and the crossbar. My Scribe 5 (e.g. f. 40r) tends to draw the cross bar from at or near the top of the ascender, making the glyph in a single stroke.
If some of these can be shown to consistently be scribal variants, that strengthens your argument about the number of scribes (corroborating evidence).
