Well, what you write here does not contradict my hypotesis.

What I say Is this: Neighbouring consonants caused the shift of wovel
quality. Some of these were laryngeals, other not. I.E the wovel
coloring from laryngeals is only a special instance of a coloring
process that occured at one spesific period. Namely: Coloring of
wovels from ajacent consonants.
