The 3d palatalization in Slavic has received a fairly wide range of
formulations in the course of time, the overwhelming majority of
which conform to the "neogrammarian" requirement of regularity. In
any case it is not at all an obvious case of irregularity, hence it
is unsuitable for falsifying the neogrammarian position, whether or
not the latter is correct.
