typos???

["Alfred W. Tueting (Tüting)" <Ti@fa-kuan.muc.de>]

Studying the "Red Book", every now and then I'm stumbling over pieces
of text that don't go together with my (still fragile!) 
knowledge of Lojban, so I do not know whether I didn't really grasp
the issue discussed there (sometimes maybe due to the 
ambiguity of the Master's language ;) - like with the /zi'o/
"problem"*) or there has occurred a misleading typo:

On page 160:
10.1) mi catlu lo mlatu poi (zo'e) zbasu ke'a lei slasi (the brackets
are *square* brackets)
If this were right (with the /zo'e/ infact elidable!), it translates
"I look at the cat that makes (made) itself from plastic"(!) So my 
guess is that the brackets should be removed, right?

* The zi'o matter - also for me - is now explicitely clarified by the
zilrelselpinxe/zilpavypinxe examples on page 163/64 
("...refers to a beverage, and not to a non-existent drinker.") ;-)
