In order words, "zi'o broda" denies that when "broda" lacks x1, there is 
anything missing necessary to the relationship.

But i thought "xajmi" meant "is funny", not "has a sense of humor about". 
When did that one change?

"ckasu" covers "zi'o xajmi" adequately, of course... But alternative ways to 
say the same thing are very useful to have, all the same.
