> I remember the Ural-Altaic hypothesis from kindergarten, and I remember the Italo-Celtic unity hypothesis from the
same period, and the Balto-Slavonic unity.   There was a tendency then to find "unities" where we now find "points of contact".   Hasn't the world moved on?

It has, but Balto-Slavic has withstood the changes.
