One point you have clearly overlooked is this: at the level of argument you are using, even producing 200 pages would not prove the model. The VMS is clearly based on a slot-like system, as Stolfi has shown. If one simply maps frequent plaintext elements onto frequent Voynich glyphs, bigrams, and trigrams within that slot system, a Voynich-like surface will inevitably emerge. Treating that as proof would be circular.
Of course the positive result won't prove anything other than statistical compatibility between this model and Voynichese. However, I'm not even sure this positive result is achievable with this model. There is huge difference between "Voynich-like surface" (whatever this even means) and matching a set of statistical properties. I'm confused why you claim that the model "fits remarkably well into the statistical peculiarities of the VMS", while showing no evidence of this so far and, as far as I understand, you haven't actually computed the statistical properties of the model. Or it would be trivial for you to publish the data you used.
