And you're wrong, because he was talking about _something_
_that_Martinet_did_not_write_about_.
One more time: the thought process by which one arrives at a
hypothesis can be *very* different from the way one presents
that hypothesis for public consumption. Miguel was talking
about the former; what's in Martinet's published works is
evidence only of the latter.

One more time : I disagree with your thought processes
and your public conclusions.
What you are saying about Martinet
is complete speculation.
