How is it that you understand the logical elements of standard sorts?
Maybe q-kau represents an entirely *new* logical element which cannot
be represented by the old logical elements. Maybe saying that you
can't understand q-kau unless it is rephrased with standard logical
elements is like saying that you can't understand predicate logic
unless it is rephrased in propositional logic. You may not be able to
understand it otherwise, but that doesn't mean you're going to be able
rephrase it.
