Re: Vowel Harmony Asthetically Pleasing?

I do indeed.  Classical Sohlob has VH, albeir of a somewhat
unusual kind, since harmony is along the high-low axis
rather than along the front-back axis.  Apparently the
anadewism for that is Middle Korean.

Unlike some others I see no necessity of having front
rounded vowels in a VH system just because most Altaic
and Uralic languages have them.
