You do look like 500 000 volt powered.
But I agree it's irrelevant.

=============
varuna should just be wa-ru-na.
Cuneiform enables wa : wa-hri, wa-ndi etc
We have : uruwana- and a-ru-na
uru and a are not a possible match for va-
There is no reason they should not write wa
if it was /va/ or /wa/ when they could write wa.
Conclusion : it must be another word.
Connections of ouranos and varuna have rejected
because the phonetics is bad,
the same applies to uruwana and varuna.

What do you mean by saying that it "points at [t?]"?
DRW
==============
I consider that a single voiced grapheme
stands for glottalized in Hurri
Indara (not intara) is [int?ara]
