I suppose that discussions about the perceived character of this or that would-be Voynich solver, or about this or that supposed theorist are a bit beyond what should be discussed here in this forum.
I've seen only too many times the argument that people are supposedly unable to change their minds because they have vested so much time in all this. That is amateur psychology of a sort that does not belong in any serious discussion forum.
What the Voynich MS is or is not, is a scientific issue, not a political debate that should be 'fought' using arguments about people's motivation, but based on discussions about the strength of the reasoning.
