Is this still true? I'm not quite up to speed on the xorlo changes
per the byfy yet.

This is basically true, as a rough description. But you cannot always
replace {lu'o le} with {lei}. For example, {lu'o le mlatu .e le gerku}
is not the same as {lei mlatu .e le gerku}, because {lu'o} takes the
whole connected sumti as its argument. {lu'o le mlatu .e le gerku}
would be {le mlatu joi le gerku}.
