Furthermore, if some nomenclator is in place, then frequent words would just map into the same ciphertext in both A and B.

It is found with high-frequency in the Bio-B text, and much less frequently in the stars/recipes (also B) text.
There are only sporadic occurrences in A language, more as parts of other words, and even fewer in herbal B.
On the other hand, the words chedy and shedy are very frequent in all B-language texts, including herbal-B, and basically non-existent in all A-language text.
While the former could be contents-related, the second appears dialect-related, or however one wants to call it....

And ed is mostly used in edy.

The argument I expressed above - it is an attempt to shed more light on the nature of the underlying defference between A and B.
Frequent vords are frequent vords. It is of no surprise that they appear both in A and B. Like the word "rot" appears in English, Swedish, German etc. Moreover, two different plain text words may map into the same pair of overlay words with two different procedures. Like plaintext 1 via procedure A yields ciphertext 1, plaintext 2 via procedure A yields ciphertext 2, but, at the same time, plaintext 1 via procedure B yields ciphertext 2 and plaintext 2 via procedure A yields ciphertext 1. Furthermore, if some nomenclator is in place, then frequent words would just map into the same ciphertext in both A and B.
