That's why I said for the most complex type of syllable,
which are the most numerous. (Maybe complex is not
the right word because they can be quite simple. The 
most common type, perhaps.)

That doesn't cover consonantal syllables, syllables 
with affricate onset (tca, tsen, djau, dzoi), syllables with 
semiconsonant onset (ua, bie, niai) and syllables with
an apostrophe onset ('a, 'ik, 'ei, 'aub). These should be
somehow squeezed in the holes left by the general 
system.
