Naibbe as published, laid into the manuscript's pages: statistics outside the cipher's spread

Same layout and statistics as T15 (RUN-035), so the rows compare directly with the earlier generators. Latin and Italian plaintexts give nearly identical numbers: the output is set by the tables, not the language.

Not supported: the published cipher reproduces the manuscript on no statistic except repeated 4-word phrases (rare in both) and, for A and for Dante on B, the top-10 word sharewhole book: 20/20/20 of 21 (genre Latin / Pliny 16 / Dante); Currier B: 20/20/19; Currier A: 19/19/190
