Given Germany’s fragmentation into small kingdoms and duchies, and the many small rural dialects, German/Bairish is certainly a plausible possibility. Especially since the marginalia are in Bairish, it is at least a plausible theory.

But it is not an artificial construct either; a system capable of reconstructing these extreme and diverse structures would be a terrible anachronism.
