I am not specifically claiming that it is a modern hoax by Voynich. There are also the following two possibilities that should be, in my opinion, seriously considered:
- An 18th or 19th century forgery,
- Parts of the VMS are forgery, others are not. What if the herbal section is genuine 15th century "magical" herbalism, like in the second half of MS 02.48, while the pharma section, which is written in a totally different hand and features what appears to be 18th century microscopes, were added later as a forgery?
