The history of Esperanto vs. Ido, while interesting, is relevant to almost
nobody. The context for that statement is that I am interested in the
relationship between Lojban and the outside world, and not that between
Lojban and the IAL community.

Bob promised the sanctity of baseline Lojban, and I refuse to learn even a
single cmavo beyond it!

Lojban is Loglan. It would be wonderful if the good minds from TLI joined
us and applied their years of wisdom to helping us grapple with the
advanced topics we have been discussing, such as the subjunctive, etc.
