That sounds a lot more like rooting and we all know that SoW and root ar at opposite ends of the spectrum in Norrath. Therefore the "sew" pronunciation is far less fitting than the female pig pronunciation. At least the latter are mobile.

No. Rooting is when you plant plants that have existing roots. If they're just seeds, then it's sowing.
