It turns out that statistically there is a difference: EVA t , k tend to be followed by 5 glyphs before the next gallows is written, and EVA f, p tend to be followed by 6 or 7 glyphs.
That's probably because words are longer (or p/f are inserted) on the first lines of paragraphs.
It seems to me that p/f words are longer because they include a bench much more often that k/t words. If benches are represented as single characters (e.g. C and S) instead of two characters (ch and sh), the next-gallows-distance has a maximum at 5 characters for all gallows.
EDIT: if these figures are correct, they confirm Koen's idea about the impact of parsing.
