Are you sure? I would have said that in both cases it is
the members. To get the clause to apply to the whole
you'd have to use: {le'i brode ku poi broda}, which
is different from {le'i brode poi broda ku}. Subordinate
clauses can be attached inside or outside the sumti
closed with ku. I think the convention is that pre-posed
clauses like in your example are as if attached inside.

In any case, I expect the rule to be the same for sets
and for masses, whichever it is.

It all depends what you will be claiming about it.
A mathematical set of blackbirds won't occupy any space.
