I was not talking about linguistics.

In bringing up the linguistic connection you were. Saying that the note which provided the basis for the linguistic connection between the stems is out-dated when the connection obviously is not(i.e. again the exemplars in the canon) is, in essence making, what I feel to be an unwarrented linguistic judgement.

And if not that then you would need some sort of corroborating material to establish 'rejection' of the particular idea which, I do not believe, you have put forth.
