The devil is in the details. I've seen in the same page of this astronomical tables codex three ways to write 'radix'. First the whole word, then the R with the right glyph of Eva-t and Eva-k and finally in red the R with a crossed line to indicate the x. All in the same page. All with the same intention or meaning?
If you or someone show me the abbreviation of radix with the glyph identical to that of the VM in a herbarium or a book of any subject, that would be more convincing.

The surprising thing in this case is the evolution of the R. In some examples the tail of the top of the R seems to close and form a loop. The loop is rounded but there are some more pointed.
The abbreviation of radix has become or can become an Eva-t

You can see Eva-k as abbreviation in radices and capitis. Does it do the same function in both? I don't think so.
The glyph is the same for radix and radices, which suggests that it does not have a grammatical function....
