This has been revisited from time-to-time and the outcome is always that *
curses* and such are deeply invested in cultural context. As such a
language that is designed to be culturally neutral does not provide curses
outside of the cultural context of the particular user. For anyone is
raised with lojban as their primary language, the concept of cursing, and
expletives will likely be an intellectual exercise, rather than an
emotional outburst.
