If you are saying that "ro lo no broda cu brode" could be interpreted
as "if there were any broda, they would brode, but in fact there
aren't any broda", then I guess you could interpret it that way. From
a logical point of view "lo no broda" is both a referring expression
and not referring to anything, so we can only try things like mixing
two different contexts to make sense of it.
