The 'Chinese' Theory: For and Against

[eggyk]

Eggyk, if Jorge retreats to your position I will address it in more detail,

The entire origin of this specific theory (and the reason a dictation backstory has been proposed) is based on the supposed match in the relative positions of daiin with the relative positions of the word "use" in the SBJ. To 'retreat' in this position would be to retreat to the initial topic imo. 

It's entirely possible that SPS is a voynichese version of the SBJ, AND also possible that the dictation scenario is wrong/impossible. Shouldn't the focus be on confirming if the texts match before determining exactly how it was written? This detailed, interesting and lengthy debate is focusing on the 'how', when we still don't know the if. 

Even if the dictation scenario were to be entirely falsified, that would not falsify the foundation of the theory. If the underlying theory of a match is falsified, the discussion on how it came to be isn't necessary.
