With your swallowtail merlon analysis you have tried to narrow down the geographical area covered by the Voynich. What would be wrong with trying to narrow down the linguistic area by for example comparing common source texts?
Now it is true that speculation of origin language may not take one very far at this time it is not clear which lines of research would take one far.

I daresay they would say the same.
My default assumption would be that the language is Latin, but I am not going at this time to exercise any effort working on the basis of that starting hypothesis as I cannot at this time see a way from getting from there to the solution.
