You may not like facts, Mkelkar, but you can't make them go away.
Grimm's law describe the relationship of certain consonants in Germanic to
others in other languages, and no matter how psychotic you become, those
relationships exist.
For example, you cannot deny that Germanic /f/ corresponds to Latin, Greek,
Skt /p/ in many words.
and so on......

Please don't confuse the existence of relationships with theories about the
cause of those relationships.
Please don't confuse your wishes with facts.
