"Based upon our findings, the language of the Voynich Manuscript is a Vulgar Latin dialect, likely affected by a contemporary Italian dialect."
If the VMS was created c. early 15th century, how could the text be affected by a contemporary Italian dialect? They were still speaking medieval Italian. Even 17th-century Italian is different from modern Italian, and 15th-century Italian is quite a bit different.
I read that as Italian contemporary to the vms, not modern Italian.
Hey Linda, this is Tim. The term "contemporary" means contemporary to the Vulgar Latin of the manuscript, not contemporary to now.

...
Like all of us, I am still waiting for a proposal that has solid foundations and is evidence-based, logical, reproducible, and that results in a complete legible text that makes sense and co-ordinates with the illustrations and charts. It's out there somewhere.

It would prevent a lot of unnecessary work on yet another "unique" iteration of the same problematic system, and perhaps steer efforts towards more useful paths.
