A lot depends on your assumption if Voynich Manuscript is a genuine thing used by someone or is it a fraud.
Personally, as I read more about VM, I am close to believe that it was a fraud made for emperor Rudolf so he would pay a nice sum for it.
In such case the original creators would be forgers, the manuscript would be made to look older than it was and it changed ownership quite quickly.
A fraud theory is totally independent on number of scribes stuff. If it was a fraud there could be one "mastermind" man and several people working for him.
