As you probably already know from Derksen, his reconstruction is (as
usual) actually a Kortlandt's one, stemming (if I haven't missed
something) from Kortlandt's article in Baltistica (21, p. 120) of 1985
(https://openaccess.leidenuniv.nl/retrieve/2555/344_045.pdf).

It seemes he (Kortlandt) is as usual reluctant to elaborate on his
proposal; at least a dilettant like me would appreciate any assistance
in trying to understand what he means exactly.
