I won't "tear it up". But I will ask whether you've cast your net widely enough
in the literature of the time to warrant the inductive leap you've made
regarding what the "linguistic evidence" indicates. A quick search of the TLG
shows that there are more examples of the use of the verb with a specified
"subject" than you've taken into account.

Yours,
