My mistake.

But to clarify, my mistake was not caused by the LFB or CLL.

I assumed that, since {la mlatu} is a word used as a name, that it was
a {cmevla}, since a {cmene valsi} is a name-type-of-word, whereas
{.aionys.}, which is only a name, is merely a {cmene}.

Of course all {cmevla} are {cmene}, but not all {cmene} are {cmevla}.
