the authors of the codex leningrad suffered no confusion or inconsistency as
to their intent & pronunciation of the last two letters and syllable .... in

ישוה יקוה יצוה ינוה ילוה יחוה

They always point the syllable toward "veh" or "weh" vocalization.

The unique change in pointing for יהוה

hence, implies an intent to cover up their actual pronunciation of that
word.
