We can already talk about conversations (in the non-formal sense, a
conversation as an event) with the current grammar.

Talking about an instance of the proposed formal construct
"conversation" is a different issue. Even if "lu...li'u" couldn't
quote that construct, we could still talk about it with for example
"lu ... li'u ce'o lu ... li'u ce'o lu ... li'u".

But I will leave the specification of the proposal to the proponents.
Personally, I think that the idea of the formal grammar as a generator
of conversations, rather than as a generator of a speaker's speech, is
too bizarre. (But then I also think that even the handling of
paragraphing with the syntax is slightly bizarre, so ...)
