I have no idea where Isaac got Taatryihu, but the word in discussion is
pronounced ta(at'-t'aRE:-hu: because before a guttural the schewa takes
the vowel quality of the guttural.

Did you in fact mean that the schewa takes the quality of the vowel following the guttural, or of the vowel point associated with the guttural? Doesn't the same rule apply also to regular consonants? It seems to me that Uri disagreed with you because he thought you were referring to some intrinsic vowel quality of the guttural itself, presumably the "a" vowel which is most commonly found before and after gutturals.
