I do think "predates" part is accurate. The entire NTA stems from 1926
conference in Baku. I don't know if voting the wrong way in that
conference meant being sent where the sun doesn't shine, or shines way
too much, but that's the starting point, i believe. So i think janalif
is a derivative of NTA, and not the other way around. It appears there
was an experiment (as in not put into a law, and implemented on a mass
scale) a couple years before 1926, but it involved an alphabet that has
some difference from janalif, and it's not referred to as janalif.

That (or a variation thereof) would be what i'd vote for.
