Well, presumably the cargo and the propellent(?) are
coming from New York too, so it could be justifiable
to say that the bloti relationship itself comes from
there.

I think it goes too much against the arguments/predicate
idea, but indeed it is a "mistake" that occurs very often,
so it may end up as that. In many cases the BAI is meant
for some other argument than the x1 though.
