I think it is interesting because it says that the graph is getting the structure of the text independently of the language. Maybe a good test would be to pass a text translated into not so near languages like Portuguese and Spanish, and see how the graph behaves. Because then, if the dots are close, we will have a tool to study the Voynich text independently from the alphabet or the "language".
