Logical, but it will cause confusions. A root like *stembHh- 'support, be
fixed' would be clear, but roots like
h2wedh- 'speak' would be readily misunderstood. How about *h2wed-H ?

There are others as well, of course, such as *lemb-H hang and *reud-H to be
distinguished from *reudH (two roots, acc. to LIV), and *skebH-H support
