Not the best analogy. PAs are words, and in any case letters have very
strict restrictions on how they can be combined to form words. In
fact, in Lojban there are two and only two letters that may be said to
belong to the same "letter-selma'o", i.e. such that they can always
occupy the same position in a phonologically valid word. All other
letters have their own individual grammars. (Exercise for the reader:
which letters are those?)

The grammar of PA would amount to splitting PA into several selma'o, of cou=
rse.
