So
we have left with the following words :

-kk- versus -g-

mrekk "speckled"
marga

bhukk- "bock"
bhug

bhelH-k- "beam"
bhelH2-g-

You don't like
makk / smag

What about
LAtin stercus = sterganos ?
O. irl menicc = many ?

creicc "buy" < kwriH2-k-
Greek pri-a-o

-tt- versus -d-

You don't like
pott / catina
kass- / kad

What about
O.irl deateach < *dett-
*dheuH- "smoke"

-pp- versus -b-

capp-al "horse"
caballus / kokyla

How do you refute these examples ?
