There's no consistent analysis to my knowledge,
though Gabriel's dendrogram based on my page
digraph analysis could be used to look into it.

The correspondence of information or images on
one bifolio, even if there are other pages in
between _could_ mean that the pages are currently
not in the right order. The quire in question 
(quire 8) is an example where things may have gone 
wrong. The Bio quie (nr 13) is anohter one.
The whole herbal section could also be ab
example, but all these cases would indicate that
the quire signatures were written _after_ the
pages were completed.... I am not sure if that
would make sense.

Cheers, Rene
