Rule-1:
"A laryngeal was lost as the second of four contiguous consonants in
internal syllables : PIE *-CHCC- > -CCC-"
a Similar Example to our topic that I could identified is that one of:
----------------------------------------------------------
*werh1- 'to speak'
> *werh1-dHh1- [-CHCC- > -CCC-]
> *wer-dHh1-
> Latin verbum /werbum/ etc..)
===============
I don't think this example proves the supposed rule.
Hebrew d_b_r "to speak"
is the same thing as PIE *wer "speak"
with inverted order of morphemes.
No traces of H1.
This is a case of alternation
*wer-H1 versus *wer-dh.
