"dikyjvo" and "le'avla" are good examples of morphologically well-formed
lujvo that despite the faults of their semantic composition have entered
the language through force of usage. (I myself use the more modern
standard "jvajvo" & "fu'ivla", mind.)

Just twitting Nick and others who had praised the dikyjvo parts of CLL.
{jvajvo} is more nearly regular, but {fu'ivla} in a contextless situation would come out as Lojban for "ditto".  Usage, as you say, overcomes these "flaws."
