a) Nostratic is more likely to have had ejectives rather
than retroflexes, although the study is young and the
results naturally inconclusive.
b) What does Nostratic have to do with anything at all?
Is this a demonstration of your lack of focus perhaps?
c) If you think the mark of a "fake linguist" is the
discussion of sound changes, I'm at a complete loss to
dream of what you think a "real linguist" discusses?
d) Have a nice day.
