There is no dispute (from me, at any rate)
that predicates should not be intrinsically Countable or intrinsically
Uncountable.

I think Lojban predicates are all intrinsically countable. In other words, {ro broda} and {pa broda} always make sense, for any broda. What counts as a broda can vary with context, but in a given context, something has to count as a broda in order to use "broda".
