Where else is he leaving out vowels? The only occasion of leaving something out in your interpretation is leaving the consonant ("l").
As a side note, I was thinking that the scribe might leave letters out on purpose according to a certain rule, e.g. "leave out each 3rd letter", that may have explain our difficulties in finding "a good reading", but clear phrases such as "so nim" or "pox leber" do not support this idea.

Sorry, but I don't buy this. Again, it's exactly like the Voynich substitution solving, where if anything does not make sense we are suggested some "corrections" which "give sense" to the reading, like "read it backwards", or treat it as abbreviation, etc. What would be a solid argument, if there are other examples of this. What Searcher quoted is interesting in this respect, but this should be checked against the original manuscript.
