Thoughts upon the leaf marginalia indicating provenance...

Simply an off the cuff thought that I haven't thought through, but, surely the presence of the various 15th century Latin characters hidden on leaves is a hint that the manuscript was originally produced by people with extensive or even native knowledge of western European literary tradition?

IE, it's unlikely that a native writer of a script other than Roman would have used Roman characters in these places.
