The Voynich Manuscript’s positional entropy collapse

[Torsten]

Timm,

Jesus Christ. You spent all that time counting pages and inventing "errors" like some unpaid librarian with a grudge. The Bennett citation was a typesetting error for the 1976 book; the rest of the points are either minor or disputable.  The paper stands on the data and the method. If you have a substantive critique of the entropy results or the cipher model, put it in writing with numbers. Otherwise this is just bibliography nitpicking.

When it comes to undeciphered writing systems, nitpicking is the key since details matter. One clarification: a typesetting error changes a digit. It doesn't transform a 1976 Prentice-Hall book into a 1971 journal article in the Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society with a fabricated volume, issue, and page range.
