I would agree -- sorry i was unclear. my point was more that different bindings would affect the pages differently, even in normal binding. Because the physical faces on the same sheet are being placed at different distances apart from one another, if the ordering is ever changed, it would result in odd inconsistencies in the differences between the yellowing and lightness of the faces.
If you look at the individual page, instead of bifolia, for both yellowing and lightness, you will see there is indeed this kind of significant variation, the bifolio level view is concealing.
This is your same chart, but at the page level, for the entire MS. Note there is a discontinuous split in lightness around f60. his discontinuity disappears when you order them according to my path.
