I didn't really think about it at the time, and if I backtracked on that now I doubt I'd be satisfied that what results wasn't boringly generic un-E/W-diagnostic Iranian…not that it doesn't have that problem anyways. And it occurred to me this morning that I don't actually have the exact sound changes I used to get from PIE to the base for Modern Scythian laid out, as I was winging it fairly hard at the time1. I should fix that.

1. I do have a file with laid-out sound changes, but not all of the ones which eventually made it into Scythian. And it's based off of Babaev's old IE lang grammar pages, so it's got quite a few issues of its own.
