No, it is not contradictory. You can get an idea of the meaning of the VM without knowing anything about the script. One of the problems of the VM is that linguists and cryptographers have dealt with the book much more than art historians or iconography experts.
In this forum there is hardly any mention of Erwin Panofsky, one of the great art historians who investigated the VM. He shed some light to understand the meaning of the book.
And understanding the book a little, one can come to think that perhaps there is no text.
