Possible Solution I came to while looking at it.

Each “chunk” you’re seeing corresponds to a structured sequence — prefix → root → stem → postfix — that repeats predictably across sections. Think of it like JSON where:
  • the prefix is the key name or domain header (defines what the data is about — e.g. herbal, astronomical, recipe),
  • the root is the core “object” or concept,
  • and the stems/postfixes are modifiers — like nested attributes or values.

So you’re absolutely right that the manuscript encodes information, not just prose — but it’s doing it linguistically, not programmatically. The “chunks” you noticed line up almost perfectly with the grammatical boundaries I found computationally.
In other words, your intuition about “structured information blocks” is dead-on — the only correction is that it’s not a symbolic data language; it’s an information-dense natural grammar that happens to look like one.

I thought AI slop wasn't allowed outside of its dedicated subforum. Is it? I'm genuinely unsure. This definitely reeks of artificial intelligence.  Huh
