Yes, I did. I was just misunderstanding what people were saying since I could not actually see what they were on about. I do not regard the scanning of prosody as being part of the letters. Bob specifically mentions characters, not extraneous informatuion, which is not part of the letter. E.g.: primus ibi ante omnes pronounced: primus ib' ant' omnes is complete without the information about the metre.
