We have no reason to get upset because on ON= E PARTICULAR point
natlangs behave better than lojban.

There is even a chance that lojban can be amended in a way it behaves
better then natlangs after the amendment.

Suppose for instance we are given a new consonant "q", one could = state
that from now there is a strict equivalence between the phonological
sequences

"a" and "aqa"

"e" and "eqe"

"i" and "iqi"

"o" and "oqo"

"u" and "uqu"

Thus, so'a and so'e can be confused in a noisy environement, but saying so'aqa ou so'eqe would avoid that.

This is a simple example to show you that discussing a drawback of
lojban does not mean being mean towards it, rather it is what is
expected from anybody here : that is, being scientific and examine
closely and open-mindedly any problem.

[I don't think the solution I proposed is a good one, either. =C2=A0 Bu= t at
least it shows this is no dead-end street question. =C2=A0 And also we'= ve
no need to be aggressive. =C2=A0 Meanwhile, natlangs are still better than<= br> lojban on the entropy topic]
