I can say descriptively "And's translation of 'The People United' uses
ka'enai". Or I can say prescriptively, "And ought not to use ka'enai,
for the Lojban grammar does not allow it."
This is really no different from the case of "'Different' is commonly
completed by 'than'" vs. "'Different than' is an obnoxious barbarism."

But the obnoxious barbarism in English (which it is btw) still parses as English; it is just a cooccurrence difference. {ka'enai} does not parse in Lojban -- one of the joys of having a complete grammar.
