I think bringing an argument to the front does make it more topical.
But in this case, it was not really brought to the front, or it was
brought to the front only to be pushed back again with "fa":

   zanfri ko'a  ->  se zanfri fa ko'a

So the difference in this case is not really about ko'a, but about
where the elided zo'e is:

   (zo'e) zanfri ko'a  -> se zanfri fa ko'a (zo'e)

In the second form the experiencer is perhaps even more irrelevant
than in the first form.
