I mean no disrespect to the person or the rest of his work when I say this but his Proto-IE-Tsimshianic is one of the goofiest proto-language reconstructions I've ever read. Look at these correspondences dawg, this was published in 2017!!! The actual cognate sets are... worse

who let blud precook input to the Classical Nahuatl transitive patient nominalization process
Stiebels' (1999) discussions are based on the fact that deverbal nouns in Classical Nahuatl tend to have the same kind of object prefixes as those which appear in the inflectional morphology of verbs. However, once we assume that TLA and the saturation of extra internal arguments are separate processes, the question arises as to whether the argument saturation process takes place before or after the nominalization . It is equally possible that the argument saturation process is already completed when the nominalization process is initiated; informally speaking, the process of the saturation of extra internal arguments in ditransitive sources may be a preliminary process which "precooks" the input for the patient nominalization process which can only be applied to a monotransitive source (not intransitive, not ditransitive).
