Why doesn't tcati have a species place? I intuitively went to say:
mi nelci loi tcati be la'o ly. aspalathus linearis ly.
by which I meant "I like tea of the species *aspalathus linearis*." which is
to say "I like rooibos tea.", thinking that tcati was defined as:
"x1 is a quantity of tea brewed from leaves of species x2."
or (in this case I would've been incorrect regardless, but it would make
more sense this way):
"x1 is a quantity of tea brewed from leaves x2 of species x3."

Why isn't it defined in a way anything like this? Is there an "of species"
sumti tcita? Preferably a bit more restricted than {le'a}?

mu'o mi'e latros.
