Sure it's two bridi. But so is {mi nelci lo'enu mi gleki}.
Each of the pair of bridi (in the .ije one) have seperate scopes,
and one prenex has scope over both of them.
The whole thing was off topic though, sorry; I shouldn't have
mentioned it, as I agree that if one expands it by simply duplicating
the `mo' its meaning changes.
