    Hi Patrick

    In the fine lines of academia, it's all about peer-reviewed articles usually published by recognized scholars, in respected journals. None of the articles you cite come close to meeting those criteria.

    It's unfortunate - the quality of the publicly available Internet doesn't come anywhere near the academic Internet that's available to university students in the specific disciplines and members only. I'm afraid I couldn't even point you to the journals you would need for the present discussion since although I have a deep interest and some skill as a linguist, my professional memberships are all theological rather than linguistic for obvious professional reasons. I give you one of my best links as an example so you get the idea of what I'm talking about here: https://www.atla.com/Pages/default.aspx As you see, it's for "members".

    Sorry to disappoint.
