What's the evidence that the colors were added later?
#10
There is no question that the order of application was pigment, upper-margin stain, foliation. The green is offset from the damp of the stain, and the foliation wasn't damaged by the stain elsewhere. I haven't looked at f.42 under a scope, but I would be extremely surprised if the green was on top of the folio number.

As for the red, there's nothing inconsistent about a fifteenth-century scribe writing in iron-gall and red ink. It is quite common.
