Let us count the days

I like the hypothesis that Labelese represents numerals and that Voynichese can be reduced to around 10 chars. The idea that we are dealing with days/degrees here seems tempting. As said it's probably not that easy though. Maybe a hybrid system in which glyphs can have multiple roles?

In cryptography the first step is always to reduce the plaintext alphabet to numbers (e.g a=1) and work from there. If you think about Roman Numerals, they reuse letters of the Latin alphabet but within a certain context it is understood that they are numbers.
