I don‘t understand what kind of „distribution“ of „splits“ you see there.
In general, there a are 10+ „beginning syllables“ crossed with 21+ „ending syllables“.
A good third of the combinations in both tables for both characters are not set (not possible or not occurring in text sample).
„Split“ is an exaggerated word, since both characters can function a a beginning letter with follow-up „syllable“, or at second position with some (long) following.
As I remarked earlier, m may do some work as a T, just in last positions, so positional variation. That is not regarded in the tables.
From a quick look, those „2nd syllables“ consist of at least 16 different VMS characters in various combinations.
The „starter syllables“ come with at least 10 different VMS characters.
It is rather safe to say that long starter syllables are not often combined with long ending syllables, but nothing more.
So the „syllables“ could be easily something like „Dot-, Ot-, T-, Et-, ….“ (lines) and „-ukus, -an, -am, -uus, -ikus, -ar, …“ (columns).
What do you expect from me now? Giving you some 600-year-old text(!) where you can „calculate“ the distribution of some
„dotukus, dotan, dotam, dotuus, dotikus, dotar,….
otukus, otan, otam, otuus, otikus, otar,….
tukus, tan, tam, tuus, tikus, tar,….
etukus, etan, etam, etuus, etikus, etar,…
:
: etc.“ ??
For what? What could you prove with this?
