<< I think it doesn't help, because x3 is the agent of event x2,
not of event x1:

x1: John laughs
x2: Robin hits John
x3: Robin

A more clear wording for {mukti} might be "x1 motivates
x3 to do x2". I think the "per volition of x3" roundabout
was used to keep the arguments in Lojban order. >>

Isn't that a bit repetitive? From "lenu la djan. mi'afra cu mukti lenu la
robin. darxi dy." it's fairly obvious that Robin's the one doing the
hitting.
