I've given you a couple. Don't you like them? There's plenty of evidence
for a laryngeal in *kruh2- other than the disyllabic pronunciation of
<cruor>. W have e.g. Skt. kru:rá < *kruh2-ró-. The example of *h2juh3on-
is parallel to your proposed *kuh2on-. If you want more examples, take
any noun like *swek^ruh2- and decline it (cf. Slavic *svekry/*svekrUve <
*swekru:(s)/*swekru[w]es).
