On the other hand, one should indeed have more than one

What regards Ill

for a while to make verbs in an SOV diachronic
conlang develop conjugational suffixes. For example:
Bill cello plays he does Bill cello plays.3s
I letter wrote I did I letter wrote.1s-past
I.e. the words for he does/I did/etc. would fuse with the verb,
first as clitics and then as suffixes
). A generalized [T] /h/ would be
a nice touch in some Germanic conlang!
Indeed. It is tempting.
But your explanation seems to indicate why these exceptions exist in
Faroese, better than the explanation I have in my Faroese grammar.
Curious that they have it in the weekday name /hostak/ as well
was analyzing some sentences and it occurred to me that adverbs can be
turned into prepositional phrases. A conlang could do well without any
adverbs at all.
Consider:
He ran slowly. = He ran [IN a slow manner].
It rains frequently. = It rains [AT frequent intervals].
I'm happy now. = I'm happy
