I always thought the places were numbered subsequently, and

fo le dargu cu klama fa mi do lemi zdani le karce

meant that "le karce" occupies the x4 place as well, which makes
it equal in meaning to:

mi klama do lemi zdani le dargu .e le karce   ,  or
mi klama do lemi zdani le dargu fo le karce

So instead, filled places are skipped for subsequent sumti?

fo le dargu fe do klama fa mi lemi zdani le karce vau ki'a zo'o
