Eh.. that’s not too bad.

He is not saying “i’m the greatest” he is just expressing how excited he felt when he realized the magnitude of the discovery- which is pretty huge.

It'll be interesting to see if there's more such texts, unrecognized, in old archives, for example, in southern France (the old Kdm of Arelate, Provencal, Gascony), northern Italy, and the like. It may have been staring everyone in the face, even while the Voynich was getting everyone in a twist.

Voynich solvers get the same treatment as people who propose a solution to old serial killers' identities (Jack the Ripper, Black Dahlia, Zodiac) -- the reviewers of their work are always advocates of some other solution that hasn't got anything but a cult following. I tried to watch that Viper YT vid, it's AWFUL. The narrator flaps for almost five minutes before getting to the actual subject, and that's about the same time I lost patience. Some of the othe vids had those reprehensible and stupid robotic narrations. I haven't watched this one yet, but note that it is from 2017.

We can clearly see the obvious depiction of a space elevator being used to whisk away naked women for human breeding experiments. There's no question then that these people had been visited by ancient astronauts who taught them the code as well.
