EVA-Sh and EVA-sh are not the same thing.

This is EVA-S on the left (in magenta)                                                      and EVA-s on the right:

  • EVA-Sh Sh is common in the VMS.                                                   •  EVA-sh sh is essentially non-existent in the VMS.
  • EVA-S S attaches to EVA-h h                                                                  •  EVA-s s does not attach to EVA-h h
  • EVA-S  S does not stand alone.                                                             • EVA-s  s frequently stands alone. 
  

People who create their own transcripts (or modify existing transcripts) based on the Basic EVA chart that is widely available on the Web and who compare this to the VMS text do not treat them as the same.

Here is the Basic EVA chart linked from your Website:

This chart has been reposted as source material on a number of sites that discuss the VMS glyphs or who are doing computational attacks.


Also, as per voynich.nu Website:

Quote:The Eva alphabet, primarily in its basic form, found great reception in the community, and it was used by the Japanese Takeshi Takahashi to produce a new transliteration, also based on the Yale "copyflo" You are not allowed to view links.

This statement is consistent with what we see in the chart. T K P F are benched characters and  EVA-S S is part of a bench character (left side + cap). In contrast, EVA-s (lowercase) s is not part of a bench-character+cap. EVA-s is a somewhat 2-shaped character that behaves quite differently from the left side of a capped bench.
