Arnaud, you are making the same error that Bomhard does.
There is no need to explain the PIE and PAA developments with *t?-.
For Nostratic, their parent, no problem.
Nostratic *t? becomes PIE *d and PAA *t; I have 24 examples of this in my
presently evolving essay.
If you think the Proto-Language is bogus, fine. But I think, for your own
intellectual honesty, you need to investigate why this correlation seems to
be possible.
