You re-write the history now
I never say this either.
Seems that you have problems to remember well what I said

I said that: ORIGINARY THERE WERE SPECIFIC VERBAL <VERB>-DHEH1
FORMATIONS IN PIE

And that the number of such PIE formation arrived to be relevant
because some daughter languages (Germanic, Baltic, etc...) arrived to
generalized this formations and to use them as an Morphological-
Pattern in order to construct new Verbal-Aspects.

I there is a need to quote my past messages I will quote them, no
problem.

I hope that is clear enough now.

I remember also Well, that you have rejected this idea talking
about parallel invovations in daughter languages with no linked with
PIE dHeh1-verbs
