This seems like "abstraction raising" to me. "ko'a sisku lo ka broda
kei le klesi" means that ko'a is looking for something which has the
property of broda-ness in the set, which should be able to be
expressed by "ko'a sisku lo ckaji be lo ka broda kei le klesi" which
is just the same as "ko'a sisku lo broda le klesi".

In short, I don't see any reason not to put an object in the second
place of sisku.
