• from Proto-Germanic wurthiz (cognates: Old Saxon wurd, Old High German wurt "fate," Old Norse urðr "fate, one of the three Norns"),
• from PIE wert- "to turn, to wind," (cognates: German werden, Old English weorðan "to become"),

For my purpose, it doesn't matter how you think as long as it doesn't interfere with my vision. I'm not going to proactively look for an argument, because I don't have anything to prove. But I do have my vision to protect.

Fair enough to me! I'm not looking for an argument either.
