Since "mi" is not explicit in the sentence with "go= 9;i", it still refers to A.
With "ra'o", the implicit "mi" would refer to B.
If A pointed to something close to A but far from B and said "mi nelci= ti",
and B said "ji'a go'i ra'o", would B be stating that = he likes something close
to B and far from A?

"go'i" with no subject would mean "A washes A'= s car".

My mistake. I was under the impressio= n that go'i kept the referents the same, such that

abu: xu do kl= ama lo zarci
by: go'i

means

abu: xu do klama lo zarci
by: mi klama = lo zarci

not

abu: xu do klama lo zarci
by: do klama lo zar= ci

whereas ra'o causes the sumti to be re-evaluated from the spe= aker's perspective, such that

abu: xu do klama lo zarci
by: go'ira'o

means

a= bu: xu do klama lo zarci
by: do klama lo zarci

not

abu: x= u do klama lo zarci
by: mi klama lo zarci
