Richard, I cannot believe the pre-glottalization voiced stops.

I would accept a metathesis (VoicelessC+? -> VoicedC).

Could that work?

===============

Pre-glottalized ?C can become voiced
following this path :
taking C=k as example
*?k > *?g > *g

The reverse path exists :
in Vietnamese tainted Chinese dialects
where *d or *g has become ?d or *?g.
