[split] Verbose cipher?

Actually, I don't understand the thinking, and the theory.
If "EVA y" = "9" and it is considered "zero or blank", how can such a position be explained.

And if "EVA y" can stand where alone at the connection "8y", then it is only "8" with two blanks.

None of this makes sense to me. Since for me the "EVA y" does exactly what it is supposed to do. ( Various possibilities open )

I believe the EVA is right on in transcribing the 9-like glyph as Y, although it was widely used in Latin medieval scripts as Latin abbreviation con or us. In my research, I found that  the Latin ending -us to -i, was gradually changing to i (like Gregory instead of Gregorius) and eventually the Y was adopted for Y, which was used for initial or final 'i' or 'y'. Various medieval manuscripts in different languages show this to be the case.
In the Old Church Slavonic, the letter I was used for conjunction 'and', and some languages, like Croatian, Serbian, and Slovenian in some dialects, retained it to this day. Under the German influence, the word INU was used in different Slovenian dialects for English 'and', and eventually, it evolved to IN. Besides being a free standing word, i or j (in Slovenian language the letter Y was replaced by either i or y) are also very common grammatical endings.
The same could be said for the word DY (which I read exactly the same as designated by EVA), which would be the medieval spelling for Slovenian word DAJ or DI/TI . Because the semivowel was not pronounced, it was not written in this particular word until the writers in the 16th century changed the rules. Besides that, the word DY (DAJ) is also one of the most frequently used Slovenian word (a form of a verb DATI - to give, 2. pers. sing. imperative mode). Depending of the mode of writing, like in recipes, instructions and prayers, this mode this ending could replace the EVA-daiin ending, which indicates the 1. person singular writing. 
This is not to say that these two letters only work in Slovenian, since there were many words in the medieval manuscript ending on y and retained this letter in various languages.
I believe that disregarding the importance of letters D and Y in the Voynich manuscript could not produce successful results.
