Let me rephrase this: People will likely raise questions about it, and it
would be nice if we had a good reply.

I am nowhere near being an expert in Armenian languages. Knowing Russian
doesn't make me an expert in South Slavic languages either, which is why I
try to be careful and reserved in my judgment about Montenegrin.

The document about Armenian that Michael attached seems convincing to me.
If a similar document is provided about Montenegrin, we may consider
approving it. I couldn't find anything nearly as convincing in the long
discussions about Montenegrin.

So I'm not disagreeing about the substance, but I am saying that there may
be more discussions in this area.
