One thing to keep in mind is that we don't know to what extent Voynechese or its predecessor were standardized. Take again Latin -que for example. In school we learn that it is added to the noun, but in speech there is nothing to indicate such spelling.
I notice that in two of the cases you show here, the o would have collided with another o. That may have been enough of a reason to sometimes write it separately.
Or for all we know, 4o can be a standalone unite as well. Like 'on' or 'in' in English, for example.
