5 minutes later: dude i swear that depalatalization is cross-linguistically far less common than palatalization, especially on such a scale as if it were to take place uniformly in all centum branches.

my buddy *Bʰíl-h₁eḱwos pacing: the Indo-Europeanists are lying to us.
the occurrence section of every rare vowel phoneme article on wikipedia looks like this:
> germanic language #1 | some speakers | ...
> germanic language #2 | xyz dialect | ...
> germanic language #3 | xyz dialect/city | ...

what if instead of fricatives there were 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴atives and we made them by placing our articulators close together..
