Dots merging with the text

[-JKP-]

Cary, the reason I thought the non-"o" glyphs might be annotations is because there are a few in other parts of the manuscript. I don't know if they are discussed all on the same thread, there might be two or three threads. For example, there is the word "rot" written vertically in a stem (which is possibly "red" in German), and MarcoP found a second example in a root, where the same thing is written horizontally.

So, MAYBE they are instructions, but in Voynichese rather than Latin characters.
