I think the differene between di'o and sedi'o is that {X di'o Y} says that
X occurs at the place where Y is confined, whereas {X sedi'o Y} says
that X occurs at, and is confined to, place Y. They differ as to what is
confined.
Similarly, {X tu'i Y} says that X occurs permanently at location Y, whereas
{X setu'i Y} says that X occurs at the place where Y is permanently located.
They differ as to what is permanently located there.
But if
{diklo}: x1 is located in x2 and nowhere else within x3
then surely
{se diklo} must be: x1 is the only location of x2 within x3
and {X di'o Y} must be: X being the only location of Y within...
But (X is the only location of Y within...) is not the same as (X occurs at the place where Y is confined)...or is it?
