You and lojbab seem to disagree on what are the current rules.

Lojbab gave the example {mi ga'i je do ga'i zukte}, meaning that
honorable me and honorable you do something.

That's exactly what I would like, but it is not what you are saying,
and it is not what lojbab was saying (in spite of his example).
