I said:
\ The first consonant is optional in non-initial syllables,
\ such as the suffix {-oy}, although syllables without the first
\ consonant are rare.

You have a valid point. I was reaching too far in an attempt to be
all-inclusive; it would be more prudent at this juncture to consider
{-oy} a single exception to a rule that otherwise requires an initial
consonant on all syllables.
