I consider this a weak confirmation both of Lisa's hand identification and the suggestion that different scribes generate different text properties. However, the second point is a correlation-type correspondence which may not be causal, but can be the consequence of another external cause/reason.

Register or Login to view.1) I think it is important to remember that there is very little text written by Scribe 3 and Scribe 5 in comparison to the others, and so we may have to be cautious when drawing conclusions based on an analysis of the work of those scribes;
In your paper you say Scribe 3 wrote the entire stars section (Quire 20) (see You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.). This would mean that scribe 3 wrote nearly a third of the whole text.

Only You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. you suggested to use percentages in order to give all pages the same weight. I appreciate that you now argue in the opposite direction.

The observation that the scribes can hardly be distinguished from each other obviously contradicts the suggestion that different scribes generate different text properties.
