Slot 4 looks interesting to me. I cannot think of a context in the manuscript where both i+ and d would appear valid, I wonder what lead to them being grouped together. Maybe this will be clarified in the per-section grammars. Since these grammars are mutually incompatible (perform poorly on other sections, as you said), probably the generic grammar is a mix of individual grammars.
Also interesting that o has its own slot. And y appears in two slots, looks like it's the only character that does this. As far as I remember, there used to be some ideas about there being two distinct y glyphs - word initial y and word ending y, that look almost the same, but function differently.
I think this work is very important for possible deciphering attempts.
