I like that very much. Currently, the only way to say "three men carried
the piano" is {lu'o ci lo nanmu cu bevri le pipno}. I agree with And that
{ci loi nanmu cu bevri le pipno} would be much better. If that is agreed,
then the default quantifiers should be {su'o loi ro broda} and {ro lei
su'o broda}, in parallel with lo/le.

As far as I'm concerned, your summary makes sense.
