Well then, maybe you ought not be involved in a logical langauge, where the 
rule is use logic wherever possible -- or at least have a clearly defined 
connection to logic.  So, can you define the connection for your proposed 
form?  I have not seen it, nor are the suggestions one that suggest such a 
connection.  But you don't need a whole sentence, just a sumti connection {ro 
da onoi le mlatu} say.
