According to _your own_ reference, the final <s(i)> of Alb. pas(i),
mbas(i) does not correspond to the final *s of *pos (which, it the
above-cited etymology is correct was simply dropped word-finally), but
represents the _Albanian_ pronominal element <si>, whose /s/ does not
reflect PIE *s. This proves your *pos > *pas to be wrong, since your
purpose was to give examples of PIE *s > Alb. s. Capisci?
