{fi'u} is also a mathematical constant in some contexts, though
it is not in PA5. I think {ka'o} is more like {pi}, {ki'o}, {pi'e},
{fi'u} than like {pai} and {te'o}. {ka'o} separates the real from
the imaginary part of a complex number. That it defaults to
{no ka'o pa} is just like {ki'o} defaults to {pa ki'o no no no}.

I included no'o there because it can work as a quantifier, which
is the basic function of the "Inexact Numbers". {xo} and {tu'o}
belong in a section of their own, obviously they have little to do
with mathematical constants. I can include them with "Inexact
Numbers" if you want.
