		It may be that the arguments about Israeli Hebrew not being a Semitic language are intended somehow to relate to this too, although as I noted there are much better examples of where the Stammbaum model fails, and it is far from clear whether the notion of protolanguage depends crucially on belief in the Stammbaum.
		Related languages of course will share typological features if they are closely related because it takes a long time for typological features to change, which is precisely whyc the Semitic languages look so typologically alike: it is because they are so closely related, with Proto-Semitic being a very recent protolanguage.
		There are hundreds of topics to work on in particular languages and language fmailies and dozens of theortical ones (about the extensions and revisions and limits of the methodology) which I alone could list that are not getting adequate attention for lack of sufficient peoplepower.
