Well, you probably know the view of Lisa Fagin Davies who is a professional paleographer and who claims that there were 5 and not 3 scribes.
There are, however, people who don't agree with that and for example claim that there was only one scribe.
Personally I just ... don't know. It seems to me there were more than one but I'm not sure about the exact number. And how could such claims be "proven"?
I would be also careful with "psychoanalysis" of the scribes. As I said you end with long shots that not only have a low chance to hit but you never really know if you hit or not.
