I'm pretty sure the language considers each cmavo as a separate word,

Quite right. An even better test is that {zo} will only quote one of them at
a time. There are a few things that {si} will erase as a block, namely
zo, zoi and lo'u-le'u quotes, bu-lerfu and zei-brivla, and that's because zo,
zoi, lo'u, le'u, bu and zei are "magic words".
