It's a little bit like the whole "CAhA when unspecified is

one.

Related to this, and to what xalbo said since, is this part of my fundamental understanding of Lojban: Everything, when unspecified, is undefined. If you want to define it, specify it. Otherwise, leave it to context. (And I fully expect that any remotely conversational Lojbanist will do just that, *often*.)
