We had that, didn't we? Not in what you list as the "current phonology",
but the one where c=/S/, x=/Z/, tc=/tS/, dx=/dZ/, j=/j/, y=/@/. It seems
that all this adds is the Th sounds, which aren't necessarily a good
thing to have.

The variant where c=/S/ or /tS/, and x=/Z/ or /dZ/ is fine too.

I'm glad to see activity coming back here.
