## Where it stands

**Still possible** Its tests haven't settled it: one piece of evidence for, none against. It needs two reviews to be accepted.

## What it predicts

- A minority of homomorphs show different positional behaviour in Linear A than their Linear B counterparts.

## What would rule it out

- Positional statistics show no homomorph behaving differently beyond what the language difference explains.
