PROPOSED CHANGE: Allow jeks wherever joiks are allowed. RATIONALE: It simplifies the logical connective system. With this change (plus change X2), JA becomes the only logical connectives ever required. The others are still available for those who prefer them. NOTE: This change is an extension. It does not affect any existing grammatical text.
