[split] Torsten's criticism of Bowern & Lindemann

[Koen G]

The parsing of words does not affect the overall word length distribution. It merely shifts the mean, as every word is now shorter. 
By the way, if you parse daiin as [da-iin?] and chor as [ch-or?] how do you parse vords like aiin, okaiin, cho, or chol?

One could parse like d-aiin and cho-r. In that case, the examples you give would be parsed aiin, o-k-aiin, cho and cho-l. I agree that this would be more of a shift than a redistribution though, but the point remains that we actually do not know word length in Voynichese.
