This always reminds me a bit of the reply I got from Romance Studies when I informed them about Cheshire's many transgressions against the field of linguistics: "We found that there are many interpretations of the Voynich manuscript and that this paper offers one of them, so we have taken the decision that no further action is needed." Basically, even people of whom we should expect some scientific rigor may observe the behavior of Voynich theorists and decide to join in. Like a wall that attracts more vandalism since there's already a lot of graffiti on it.
