Okay. Nick & Lojban say that any deviation from the prescription 
is bad per se. I say that deviation is bad in proportion to the 
adverse consequences it has (in terms of causing us to not speak 
the same language). There's not much more to be said about that.

(I agree with xorxes that ironically the discussedness of 
experimentals means that they stick in the memory better than
many official words. For instance, I have no idea what the
official word for 'fungus' is, but I do know 'gumri'. And
among the cultural gismu, I no longer have any notion of
which are and aren't official, except for obvious cases.)
