Agreed, I never use that and got confused when reading
lo with an outer quantifier, which is exactly the same thing
as just sticking a number before an item (i.e. "mu lo bakni" == "mu
bakni"
== "five cows), works pretty much as before: "five things that
really are cows".
at http://www.lojban.org/tiki/How+to+use+xorlo [1] . Someone might
want to rephrase that.

Oh wow, that's not good at all, that's completely inconsistent with
