For a fu'ivla to have a drop-the-last-vowel rafsi it must meet all the
following conditions:

(1) end in -CV
(2) when you drop the last vowel you don't end up with a string of rafsi
(3) when you drop the last vowel and remove an initial consonant you
don't end up with a string of rafsi

"tci'ile" meets all three conditions, therefore it can have "tci'ily"
as a rafsi.
"kapsiku" fails condition (2), therefore it can't have "kapsiky" as a rafsi.
