This is probably not likely since I'm assuming that Kuiper's words
were only from the Indo-Aryan family and not the larger Satem family
since his hypothesis is that only IA and Dravidian were together in
India for a long time.

If they turned out to be part of the Satem family... well, I suppose
McAlpin's idea of the connection between Dravidian and Elamite might
explain that.
