I can't agree. It is straightforward, yes, and it does simplify, but it's designed to highlight a point and it does a reasonably good job. Overall I see little difference between your solution and rikforto's mockup, other than yours is much more complex and evolved.

No, even though I tried. One of the most common words in the MS is chol. According to the table you posted it's r??, only the first glyph has a single unique mapping, there is no way to identify which word this could be. Another very common word is chedy. It's r?d[in], again it's absolutely unclear what this should map to.
If you wish to demonstrate your methodology, here are some of the most common words in the MS: chedy, Shedy, chol, chey, cheol, Shey, chor, dar. Each one of these appears more than a hundred times in the manuscript. If the manuscript is a phonetic representation of a language, each of these should map to some very common word. It's possible that some of them have several meanings, but at least one of the meanings should be a frequent word. What are these 8 common words, could you list them?
If you're not going to try to demonstrate repeatability, why are you on this thread? That's the point of the thread, it's in my initial post. What you write above is incorrect already. According to what I've written and posted on three different platforms, those characters would read: R, A, FADA
rá1, m. (gs. as s. ~, as vn. ~ite; pl. ~ite). 1. vn. of ABAIR1. 2. Saying, utterance. ~ Bhearcháin, Bearchan’s saying, prophecy.
