Indeed I would.  Alas, "gi nai" are about as united as any two cmavo can
possibly be, and "ka'e" can't intervene.  A UI can intervene,
but the result is that the "nai" binds to the UI.

I think the best we can do is "loi prenu. go pamei. giNAI ka'E te jinga."

No, that's why GUhA exists -- to eliminate the ambiguity.
