A common origin or Alb.shyt/Rom.c^ut (f.)c^ut& 'without horns' and
Alb.sut&/c^ut& 'doe' from an original *tsu: < PIE *k'uh- :

1. count for: the long u: , that have traces in Alb. shyt and
explains also the origin of *c^ as from *tsw (-> note that only a tsu
(< *k'u) remains tsu in Romanian)

2. next explains why the Romanian c^ut& has the double
meaning 'without horns' and 'doe'(< 'without horns one' < 'the cutted
one' < PIE *k'uh-to)

3. MORE IMPORTANT: count for 'the unusual' c^/sh alternance of
Romanian c^ut/s,ut 'without horns' (Note that Romanian has also the
variant s,ut for c^ut) and of Albanian shyt 'id.': based on
*tswu/*swu < from the *ts/s alternance -> as in
s^ambure/thumbull,sumbull ; sarbad/tharb&d etc...)


Finally: A Model that explains in an organic way, all the existing
words with their meanings and all the existing phonetic forms: is the
right one in my opinion
