Excellent.
There was a reason why I asked you that question.
The reason is that i found the hard way that to understand and to get the nuances of this and similar theories - conjectures that are under academic consideration but have not yet been 'proved', in the physical sciences sense or the social sciences sense - one has to understand those who oppose them and have alternative, hostile theories.
Of late, I have been studying revisionist views of these theories, so that I could grasp what makes people oppose them, and in what way they oppose them.
For instance, Hindutvavadis dispute the theory that has been propounded above. They derisively call it the Aryan Invasion Theory, referring to the original concept that had the Aryans imitating the Greeks, the Germanic tribes and the Anglo-Saxons vis-a-vis Britain. In its place, they strongly advocate the Out of India theory.
Unless we understand their point of view, it is extremely difficult to understand, with all its nuances, this point of view that you have presented.
I see what you mean.
I have found an older article / study (published in Science, september 2019) which I posted a number of months ago and that is related to the original post and what you said. It might be of interest to you.
