Thanks, I was pretty sure the details weren't 100% right.
Another overlooked point is that it wasn't immediately obvious that the Hittite ḫ was related to Saussure/Möller's laryngeals, because the theory wasn't fully accepted at the time, and not everyone understood it. Even after the ḫ was identified in Hittite, it took a while for people to make the connection.
Do you know what Saussure's initial evidence for h2 and h3 was?
