Now let us return to the question if the strange 'tail' really is a mark for viri. I first want to present as evidence period no. 30 in the calendar of the year in Small Santiago / London:
Ga7-1 Ga7-2 Ga7-3 Ga7-4
Kb4-6 Kb4-7 Kb4-8 Kb4-9

At the end of the year, during the five dark extracalendrical nights, po,  (Ga7-3 / Kb4-8) there is winter solstice (Ga7-1 / Kb4-6), a viri (GD33).

And it looks as if the variants of toko (GD32) in Ga7-2 / Kb4-7 are influenced by the immediately preceding viri glyphs. These toko are straight, not bent, presumably because they represent the central pillar, not the four cardinal pillars.
