True.  But the insanity of writing directly on vellum would be independent of any insanities in the contents. 

That is, the hypothesis "the Author had those crazy ideas and wrote straight to vellum" is much less likely than "the Author had those crazy ideas and wrote a draft for a Scribe"

All the best, --stolfi
