Why not try proving something with data rather than imagining your ideas
have any reality outside of your own head?

Wrong again! It is true that some languages use *qo, 'skull/head', for 'I';
others use *na, 'one'; others *mo, '(hu)man'; others *k?e, 'male', and, a
few like PIE use *¿e, 'speak(er)'.

PIE *Heg^- is from *?a-k?e, 'this male'.

Also, there is _no_ instrumental in PIE with -*aH1.

Are you unable to buy the appropriate manuals for these studies?

I suggest a nanometer scale for you.

*C_C- is not the same thing as *CéC- because

1) it neglects long vowels;

2) it ignores attested vowels in descendant languages;

3) and, with a context like verbal root, it conveys nothing.

Whether you have it so organized in your head or not, (P)IE dictionaries use
the perfect verbal root as the citation form: *CéC.

If you do not like it, talk to Pokorny.

You are being characterically obtuse.

If the form was *gw_H2, there would be no vowel for *H2 to 'color'.

***

characterically !?
A new word ?

Maybe you should avoid complicated words
like obtuse if you can't use basic words.
