It is not clear from your post whether you are aware that here are 30+ more letters from Marci to Kircher.
They are all at Philip Neal's web site.
I do agree with you that we can't be sure that the 'schaedata' mentioned in 1640 are copies of the Voynich MS. It is tempting, but not certain.
Note that neither the web page you quote, nor Philip Neal's translation and comments actually state this.
