Let us start at the beginning of side a of Tahua. This 7-glyph sequence is famous because of the Russion students who once discovered the parallels between the H, P, and Q texts through them, the 4-fold vae kore repetition draws attention:

Aa1-2 Aa1-3 Aa1-4 Aa1-5 Aa1-6 Aa1-7 Aa1-8
Ha5-26 Ha5-27 Ha5-28 Ha5-29 Ha5-30 Ha5-31 Ha5-32
Pa5-8 Pa5-9 Pa5-10 Pa5-11 Pa5-12 Pa5-13 Pa5-14
Qa5-16 Qa5-17 Qa5-18 Qa5-19 Qa5-20 Qa5-21 Qa5-22

I have used my colour chart, but - as we can see - there is no consensus as regards the colours for the vae kore glyphs among the 4 texts. Only A and Q are alike.
