It's 'caused' by the selbri, but you can't express it without du'u.
IOW, the selbri causes the du'u sumti to be intensional, but nondu'u sumti of that selbri would not be intensional.

Maybe somebody could express this clearer. I'm tired.


By {du'u} do you mean {du'u} itself only or all of NU that can be expressed as {du'u} in your versions?  There are clearly cases of {nu} at least that are as intensional as an simple {du'u} (which might count for your interpretation).
