At some stage in the history of vulgar eurasian liturgy, there was a catastrophic sound change which rattled through all alphabets, namely the shift to read α (al Pha) as (Alpha) ƒ => a

This shift is represented in many places, one beautiful example being κρατύς

𓐍 𓊪 𓈙 𓄗 •krapus : Kraft κρατύς (kratús) > *kret- “strong, powerful” क्रतु (krátu) 𐬑𐬭𐬀𐬙𐬎 (xratu)

We argue that at the time of writing the letters in κρατ were read as:
κρατ Kraft, not krat!

Very similar development:
ו v/u
𐌰 V/A > ᵛA > A
