"la" rule



Here's another reason the "la" rule is bad.
As I understand it, ordinary gismu and lujvo can be used as names after "la".  There are 23 gismu beginning with "la-", 16 rafsi beginning with "la"+consonant, 5 rafsi with "la'V" and 2 rafsi "laV".  This means there are a lot of actual and potential words which act differently from any other native Lojban words, namely by becoming illegal when used as a cmene.  For this reason alone the "la" rule should be replaced.
