Let's assume that
xau = BAI tag denoting agent or reference frame.
.iei = BAI tag denoting object.
.uai = BAI tag denoting property of the object.

Then we can rephrase many gismu as
ko'a djuno lo du'u ko'e brode kei ko'e = xau mi djuno .uai lo ka brode .iei 
ko'i
(the same for {morji} and company)

ko'a kakne lo ka brode = xau [je .iei] mi kakne .uai lo ka brode
ko'a te mukti lo nu brode = xau ko'a .iei ko'a .uai lo ka brode kei te 
mukti 
(May be xau = gau or xau = ma'i)
These tags can replace FA (a separate set of SE is not needed here if we 
use {jai}).

For {vecnu, dunda, cpacu} and {benji} we can use {be'i} tags (if {benji} is 
about sending objects, not information) as the core semantic prime for 
those gismu seems to be the same.
For sending information another set of BAI might be needed.

This is not the problem. We can just use {selmanci} and forget about 
{manci}.
{xabju = se zdani} is a better example showing redundancy.
