Discussion of "A possible generating algorithm of the Voynich manuscript"
Perhaps yet another short summary:

Torsten's input is something that is like a correlation: similar words tend to appear near each other.

This correlation is converted into a causality: this happens because the writer took previous words, modified them a bit and wrote them down again.

One cannot go from correlation to causality without extra data/information.

The only extra data/information presented is the output of Torsten's App. We don't know what it does exactly.

On top of that, it has been demonstrated that a simple method of converting a meaningful text to unreadable text can have exactly the same property as seen in the MS. This shows that the conclusion that the text is meaningless is not a valid conclusion.
