Yes look, P cannot be an abbreviation for more than 1 K character, because its length distributions are already extended. So how would abbreviating K words result in longer P words?
It makes sense if K was the form that was actually abbreviated, and Kch -> ke sometime in 'archaic' voynich, and this change never made it over to P.
And to stolfi's earlier obsrvation around lengths being binomial distributions.
