Why not positional variation?

I'm not any kind of expert on Voynich Manuscript but for me so called "n" also looks like a final "i".

There was some very practical reason about it - nobody could falsify your numbers but adding some extra "I" here and there. With that "j" sign you were sure where they end.

And we have serious reasons to believe that Voynich letters behave similarly to numbers or, to make a stronger claim, they are some mutated numbers.
But I agree that at this moment it's just a hypothesis.
