Thank you. I agree with all your points.
It's a shame though, as it would have been a nice VMS creation narrative: wealthy Venitian merchant, who travelled around the world, had 26 children and a lot of life experience from all cultures, keeps a secret diary of his earthly knowledge which he encrypts with a home made cypher system.
Oh, wait a minute, Dati did have such a book: "Libro Segreto". But alas, it is not encrypted.
Also of note is that Dati kept a very meticulous diary of every aspect of his life, including the details of the lives of all 26 of his children and 4 wives, all his business dealings and relationship with God. Except for the last 8 years of his life, where mysteriously he ceases to produce any literary output whatsoever. What could he have been doing, I wonder? Not writing another, this time encyphered, book of secrets?
PS. Obviously these cojectures are not meant to be taken seriously. Just making sure haha
