Your proposal is predicated upon the scribe writing numbers (that are not dates) sideways onto the block. All evidence I have seen shows hieratic digits above 9 are written upright and are NOT rotated sideways in the manner you insist. That is what the evidence shows. For the mainstream view (which you have portrayed in your video) to be accepted i.e. that the value 10 ('n') would have been written sideways, needs proof from a source outwith the Vyse Chambers.

One would not have required a secret cache to copy and flip 'hieroglyphic' numbers in Vyse's time.
