The entropy is anomalously low, independent of the transcription alphabet. Indeed, there are different results depending on which alphabet is used, but these differences are significantly smaller than the anomaly observed.
Bennett in the 1970's (who first noted the anomalous values) used something similar to Currier's alphabet. Certainly, Eva should not be used for this type of analysis.
Indeed, the way to arrive at something similar to a 'normal' language is by compressing the Voynich text, i.e. combining characters.
However, this is just part of the picture.
