I think we can then go even deeper into this linguistic gestalt by
recognizing, as Isaac Fried did, that "The root PTX is apparently a
variant of . . . PSG, PSX, PCX, P$X, P$Q, (PSQ), PTX with acts
connoting 'spread'.
I'd like to have more real evidence that these are related than a vague
phonetic similarity.
