I don't think these chaps have done enough homework to understand why the VMs is almost certainly not a simple substitution cipher applied to a specimen of natural human language.
There's a thread on this website that lays out all the major reasons why this makes sense, despite not being intuitive, which should be required reading for any aspiring theorist claiming a specimen of natural human language, either in the plain or enciphered in a simple, historically precedented way. I wish this was better understood, so that people didn't waste their time and scholarly talents pursuing a dead lead down a well trodden trail.
Could you point me to this thread, or to others of this sort, that could provide possible openings for NLP research that avoid these pitfalls? Thank you.
