Technically (in my interpretation - as it is not really addressed anywhere =
tobmy knowledge), this would happen anywhere in a bridi, including in the i=
mplicit terbri of a sumti (the ones which are made explicit and then filled=
 by use of BE), as well as in the case about which you are asking; so, yes.=
 Luckily, there is an experimental cmavo, invented by yours truly, which he=
lps with such problems: "de'au" (or its relatives).

I am not sure why you would want to use a sumtcita without filling it expli=
citly, unless you wanted the default to be there too, but I might just not =
be sufficiently imaginative. In any case, you have your answer and the work=
-around/fix (depending on how you favor it). This should be documented in t=
he CLL2 - thanks!

By the way, I do not think that this happens with BAI, even those which are=
 related to/derived from words which have default values programmed into th=
eir terbri, unless the BAI word itself explicitly has a default value assig=
ned to it in its definition.
