It was a recent excellent suggestion of Jorge's in
response to my complaint about having to use a quantifier
even to quantify over noncontingently singleton categories
(i.e. categories that are singletons in all worlds). Jorge
suggested using {tu'o} as a vacuous quantifier.

This had been bugging me for years, so I seized on Jorge's
suggestion avidly.

Anyway, you could happily rephrase my version as 
{ro ka ce'u djuno ku ka ce'u vlipa}, or {lo'e ka ce'u
djuno ku ka ce'u vlipa} [that is not a llambian lo'e].

Probably, but neither djuno nor vlipa is monadic (1mei
tergismu). Or do I misunderstand your point?
