Are you suggesting that the toggle be incorporated into the official ma'oste in order to bribe the remaining five Loglan people -- none of whom have even asked for this cmavo -- into learning Lojban? How does allowing the importation of Loglan sentences through a device only two syllables shy of "zoi" simplify the Loglan --> Lojban transition enough to attract anyone who was previously uninterested in it? Only experimental cmavo which are heavily used are eligible to become non-experimental. This trifling cmavo has been barely used at all, and is far, far from earning a spot in the baseline ma'oste. -- Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.
