Why I think that the copyist(s)/scribe(s) did not fully understand the material

Someone on Reddit asked whether the VMS could be a copy. My first thought was that the copyist(s) may not have been familiar with the “writing system” and therefore created a “blind copy.” In other words, he / they copied it without understanding it. If that were the case, I wouldn't be surprised if errors such as overlooked or misplaced labels occurred. Of course, this is just speculation in the end.
