I haven't seen an analysis other than the examination of the originating
device to determine "true" authorship (V himself on an android or an
underling on an iPhone).

I'm sure a content analysis can't be far behind, if only from the literary
types who use this type of analysis to guess at authorship. There is a
literature on this analysis among Shakespeare scholars and Biblical
scholars (authorship of different books0.

A time series component might be an interesting twist.

Best wishes for the new year to my fellow tipsters.
