It's just your perspective on language. Just imagine that you grew up 
speaking Lojban and you're looking at English. What's the purpose of "to" 
when it's intrinsic to the word itself anyway? I imagine a Lojban native 
would have trouble understanding "to" or "from". You're still thinking 
terms of your native language, so to you "implies 'to' already" is bad 
thinking. It's more like a function and less like a 'shortcut' to an 
English phrase.

So, in short, stop trying to relate it to English.
It's not a shortcut and it doesn't imply anything.
It's a language on its own. <3
