A PIE without agricultural lexicon, like every other language before Neolithic.
If Latin has typically administrative words, this doesn't mean that
Latin couldn't exist before Roman Empire or Roman Republic or even
before Rome; if Greek has typically philosophical words, this doesn't
mean that Greek couldn't exist before Thales; if PIE has typically
agricultural words, this doesn't mean that PIE couldn't exist before
the Neolithic Revolution
