Ok, you may be right, but then I don't know what
{ko'a jo'u ko'e klama} means as different from {ko'a joi ko'e klama}.
That was just an idea to give it some sense.

The default quantifier on {loi} is pisu'o. That means that
{loi broda} selects from masses formed from any number of members
of {lo'i broda}, not just the one mass formed from all members.

But {ko'a joi ko'e} does not have a quantifier. It is a singular
term.

They are grammatical there, which is not the same as to say that
they work.
