Either we need to change th= e definition of e.g. "grute" (which may be is against the rule)
o= r make those two gismu obsolete in favor of newly created gismu that combin= es the meanings of the two.

Most of that discussion is incomprehensible to me, = and probably to most
Lojbanists.

A language can never be e= xactly defined in terms of itself, so that's
generally not a problem. I= have no problem with "rozgu" or "djacu"
or "lanme". I do have a proble= m with "jbari", as it's defined in terms of
English "berry", which is p= olysemous. One definition includes strawberries
and raspberries and blu= eberries but excludes tomatoes and oranges; the other
does the reverse.=
