"So really, I'm not sure if the conventional approach makes sense." "My Finnish is not good enough to read that, I'm afraid." That's pretty bold, isn't it. You deny the thinking and theories of a whole school of linguists without being able to read the language! More seriously, the confusing part is that the reader might be lead to believe that there is a clearly defined accusative in Finnish - which there isn't. Instead of building theories of our own, we should stick with either of the mainstream theories.
