Assuming there even IS a Proto-Zireen or Proto-Sangari.  It's hardly
settled that there *was* a Proto-World for human languages.  And even if
that's so, or at least that the Azarians had monogenesis, it could be
that there was already several language families by the time of the
split - and even conceivable that one or two of those families might've
had representatives in both the Zireen and Sangari founder populations.
