Thank you for sharing your insights! I find your observations truly relevant. Even if you haven't delved deep into humanistic script, merely knowing about it due to its ties with the Voynichese script is an intriguing starting point.
It's fascinating to hear about your studies on gothic cursiva. It's true that its feel is distinct from that of the Voynichese, and as you pointed out, the roundness and spacing are certainly part of the reason.
I concur with your observation about the combination of connected and disconnected letters in Voynichese being of interest. It's an intriguing perspective to view the Voynichese as "chopped up cursive," seemingly wanting to connect but not always doing so. Or perhaps, as you suggested, it's the opposite: a primarily disconnected script with occasional linking elements.
Don't worry if you don't yet have a full grasp of the script. Every contribution, no matter how small, enriches the discussion. I'm convinced that understanding the origins and influences of this script will be key to unraveling the Voynichese mystery.
I hope this response meets your needs!
