I like the analysis of ReneZ and I choose Choice number 4: Currier A and B are different encodings of the same source text word. Given that I don't believe in a linguistic solution, I prefer to say different encodings of the same source string symbol made by at least two scribes. For me it's the simplest solution. It's a new invented code and there are variants in the way to write it.
Instead of 'stroke encoding' I also prefer 'shape encoding' or better 'iconic enconding', a representation of the moving sky with astronomical symbols.
Of course the script is meaningful. It's the science of the XV century although it's hard to understand
