On a character level, the most common characters (by far) in Hebrew are Waw, He and Jod. His findings for Waw and Jod are far from that in VMS, He excludes He, because the "ha-" article would not have been pronounced in the dialect he proposes. But what about the other words that begin with that letter? Among those there are some of the most important and common words like those for "he" and "she".
I think this kind of statistic is very important.
If there is an assumption that Voynichese is natural language, then a disconnect between letter frequencies in the VMS, and letter frequencies in the language of choice (in this case Hebrew), raises red flags. Hannig's paper does not discuss this problem.
