Yeah, the writing at the edge of lines is sometimes odd, researchers have long noticed it. Coupled with the fact that they are seemingly written in the same hand, to me seems like evidence that the scribe was not just blindly copying text one word at a time, but wrote those glyphs intentionally ahead of time or after the fact.
Even if the scribe were copying from someother source with LAAFU margins, I dont think we should be seeing detached (or attached) glyphs at line edges with this odd spacing so many times.
But I'd be glad to hear someone else's opinion on the matter. Maybe it was commonplace to 'capitulize' or mark the start of paragraphs/lines before copying the bulk of text, on unruled vellum
