>Alscher notes (but for a different purpose) that several nominal and
verbal endings seem similar,... Solution: look for a noun + verb

When the ablative absolute has fairly clear semantic origin within the
normal case usage of IE, it seems unnecessary to propose this, and rather
extreme to suggest it as a better explanation.
