I think it is important to distinguish between what Fontana said his motivations were and what some might hypothese his motivations were. I don't know if there are direct quotes from Fontana on this matter that anyone knows of where he elaborates on his motivation. Do the enciphered texts state his reasons for enciphering them? Are there contemporaries who knew him who state the reasons why they believe Fontana enciphered his work?
