Also, based on my thorough (unpublished) analysis these (and other not gallow related anomalies) are errors, read: mistakes by the scribe.
Thus following these exceptions as entities is a waste of time, in my view. But hey, it's just my opinion. Time will tell.
I don't consider them anomalies. Some of these forms are not rare (half gallows are not rare).
They do not look like scribal mistakes to me. I have created four transcripts to date, have looked at every glyph in the manuscript numerous times, and there is method to how the gallows are created. The chart only picks out representative examples, the actual instances are far more than are included in the chart and they follow patterns.
It can't possibly be a mistake to deliberately tuck another letter under the bench in such a way that it does not touch the bench. That is not a scribal error, that is a choice.
