Which, again, means that *g^Hw- is treated differently from *gWH-, QED.

Nice try
But it doesn't work.
 
If we sum up the data :
 
u- is a vowel : Greek ku-on : Skrt shvan
w is phonemic feature of consonant : Greek phonê : Skrt ghan
w is phoneme in phonotaxis : Skrt ghorah
 
kuh2on (Satem : k > sh)
ghw_n = gh_w (Satem Cw > C)
 
What do you want to prove ?
