I do not want to actively enter this discussion but, for whatever it may be
worth, I believe the Germanic sound system was developed in the IE homeland,
in close proximity to Semitic, as the correspondences I have developed
between Germanic and Semitic seem to suggest --- after other IE branches had
struck for the west.
