Quote:Why make it -a priori- more difficult than what we see, let's make it childishly simple: it is what we see: a picture and a label.
I prefer that as starting point and not the more complex scenarios.
Actually that's no different ranks of complexity. If a piece of sugar is depicted with the word "sugar" beside, it is as "complex" as a piece of sugar with the word "white" or with the word "sweet".
I'm quite sure that all those Voynich charts are not an end to themselves, but serve for practical purposes (of predicting, healing or whatever). In other words, they are not just "educational", but "application-specific".
