This is where I think you've fundamentally misunderstood the game. You are making changes for the entire language, it's just that we're only viewing them on a single example word. It should be possible to take another word and run it through all the same steps as the example word.

2. "ʑ is devoiced". I could've said "all sibilants are devoiced" instead

So why didn't you?

ʑ was the only one there. I didn't occur to me to write that all sibilants are devoiced.

OK.

[ˌgwɵː.ʔɞːˈgwɵːɕøj]
Vowel harmony. The first syllable decides wether vowels will be rounded or unrounded.
I lowered the ɘ to ɞ to distinguish it from ɵ. No biggie, right?

Technically, that's two changes. But my change was going to be deletion of vowels in pretonic syllables anyway:

[ˌgwɵːʔˈgwɵːɕøj]

There, now it's moot.

Contraction of long vowels into high tone:
[ˌgwɵ́ˈgwɵ́ɕːøj]

The modifiers are showing up funky. So [ˌgwɵ˦ˈgwɵ˦ɕːøj]
