I want to stress that I was talking specifically about the truth value of 
the main bridi. In other aspects, specific form of sumti may be important. 
One example: {lo broda ku brode} implies {lo brode ku broda}. That may be 
important if the listener does not know the referent. At least he now knows 
that {da broda gi'e brode}. If the bridi was {zo'e brode} (which has the 
same truth value), the listener would gather less information from it: {da 
brode}. On the other hand, if the listener already knows the referent and 
that it is/does broda, {zo'e brode} gives him exactly the same information 
as {lo broda ku brode}.
