Exactly.

For reasons of symmetry there should be a short word for "xi nai"= .
Are there any unoccupied two-letter words for lojban ?

Subscripts appear to be more a fairly general means of attaching additional= information or distinctions to grammatical words, rather than a representa= tion of the typographical practice of subscripting.

The meaning of zo xi is analogous to the mathematical practice of subscript= ing. In mathematics superscripts are variously used for lo tenfa, repetitio= ns of other elements than multiplication, and in ways similar to subscripts= .

Such as "2=B3", which means "tw= o raised to the power of 3".
