I must admit I haven't looked much at the lessons until now.

I see something which I would consider controversial - the lessons say, in
chapter 7, that it's incorrect to use {nu} where you should use {du'u}. I was
fairly sure that {du'u} is a specific type of {nu}, and in fact the only
abstractions which can't be blanketed under {nu} are {ka}, {jei}, and {ni}.

{nu} is defined as "generalized event abstractor: x1 is
state/process/achievement/activity of [bridi]". Wouldn't "state" encompass
{du'u}?
