Here is another argument for the Tower and the Devil not to have been in the deck.
Trionfi .com talks about the 5x14 theory.(Huck)
That is that the Visconti had only 14 trumps in the first place- and then another Artist was commissioned to paint a further six.
According to this there was (in English)
The Magician
The High Priestess
The Empress
The Emperor
The Hierophant
The Lovers
The Chariot
Justice
Hermit
Wheel
Death
Hanged Man
Judgement
Fool........
Then came the other 6 -Star/Sun/Moon Strength/Temperance/World.
So in that theory there is no Devil/Tower replacements needed.
