is it true that the lojban morphology is exaustively proven?  that

furthurmore, can it be proven within reasonable limits, such as not
allowing fu'ivla?


I'm not sure I understand the question, which seems off thinkit's usual points.  The audiovisual isomorphism is trivially assured regardless of what happens with fu'ivla. Questions about about unique word segmentation or morpheme segmentation are more likely to be problems with any complex word forms. And checking out the possible ways that things can go wrong is probably what is holding up (if anything still is) approval of a variety of fu'ivla forms.
