Beta leaves were one of the last features we picked up on, I believe in part due to examples like f2r. That is why being fused at the base is part of the definition. It's a subtle difference, which makes it all the more intriguing.
Somehow I don't think I noticed the veins on 46v. They look so different, almost like a texture pattern. The mid vein is camouflaged by streaked paint. But yes, it is certainly there.
Interestingly, this is one of the few B-folios to include red, so if we had taken color into account, it would already be conflicting.
