I think a post of mine got lost somehow, which I'll quote from:

I went on to point out that in my lojban writing I was noticing a
correlation between veridicial and opaque, which was causing me to lean more
towards Lojbab's system, for Zipfean reasons.

Lojbab wrote back and said that he couldn't fill in the question marks on
his side of the table because he couldn't imagine an opaque non-veridicial.
I think I can imagine one, but I don't think it's terribly useful.
