This is not as simple as that, .arpis

The reason is that in philosophy, there is the notion (which is
signified) and the word (which signifies)

To convey an idea (a notion), one forges a word

But somebody else can re-use this word to make it say something
slightly different, --- and this is regarded as a fair move

This is antithetical to something I believe to be fundamental to = lojban, namely a strong and active attempt to avoid polysemy.

Hence, it is as if we had goods and money, goods can be exchanged with
money, money can be changed to goods, and the fact there are two
levels create a useful dynamics that permits people to scrutinize
questions in a very efficient way (albeit for non-philosophers, this
is precisely the assholish way)

I wonder if this can be kept in lojban

However, what you say makes sense, for instance Roman philosophers
translated all greek terms into latin, --- and by doing this they
CHANGED the philosophic viewpoint on life the Greeks had into a NEW,
CREATED ON THE SPOT Roman viewpoint on life.

Maybe such things cannot be avoided at all.

Prepare to create a lojbanic philosophy, then !
