No one said it's invalid that I know of, but it contains a diphthong that 
does not appear in lujvo.

According to chapter 3:

The first four diphthongs above (``ai'', ``ei'', ``oi'', and ``au'', the ones 
with off-glides) are freely used in most types of Lojban words; the ten 
following ones are used only as stand-alone words and in Lojbanized names and 
borrowings; and the last two (``iy'' and ``uy'') are used only in Lojbanized 
names.

Thus a fu'ivla can contain {ua} or {io} or {ui}. So {srutio} (a fu'ivla, 
discarded in favor of {strutione} for "ostrich") is distinct from {sruti'o} 
(a lujvo: "penumbra", maybe?), and {ckankua} (a fu'ivla: "skunk") is distinct 
from {ckanku'a} (a valsrslinku'i).

As to the TLI alternate orthography, {i'o} in a fu'ivla is written as {i,o}, 
but in a lujvo {i'o} is written as {io}.

By work, do you mean that you can make words like {cipnrxakuilykanla}?
