I wouldn't say that you can't be right, but I just wonder what makes you
so certain. I can't see much evidence either way. The Gk. word family
built around malak- 'soft' seems to indicate *h2 _if_ it's the same
root. I suppose that's why most (though not all) IEists prefer the
reconstruction *melh2-. Some just refrain from specifying the index.
