It does, I gather Kroonen simply dates the change as post-PGmc. This rule is really needed for Northwest Germanic only, since Gothic raises *e to /i/ in general. He doesn't explicitly comment on this, but also reconstructs e.g. *bremisa-(“gadfly”), *deli-(“dill”), *sweljan-(“brother-in-law”). --Tropylium (talk) 12:36, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Original n-stem

That's just one proposal by a single source, hardly a general linguistic consensus. How many sources, that you have not mentioned, reconstruct these nouns as we do? The additional sources present at *himil, all with their own proposals, are exactly why we shouldn't prefer Kroonen's. —Rua (mew) 12:46, 18 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Kroonen is not the only one that supports this reconstruction. See {{R:ofs:OFED|himul}}. None of the sources on *himil conflict with the existence of an original n-stem. How do you interpret that differently? --{{victar|talk}}20:00, 18 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
