Voksigid actually started out as an effort to invent a language that 
didn't have certain "flaws" in Lojban perceived by the guy who proposed 
it.  Likewise gua-spi is historically tied to Lojban and thus warrants 
some comparison on that basis.

I myself with Athelstan did a comparison with Esperanto, because of 
certain oft-repeated claims about that language that related to Lojban's 
claims.

But Ilaksh's inventor seems to make no claims at all related to Lojban, 
and I have no reason to believe he ever heard of Lojban.

Where is there a claim that Ilaksh is a "logical language"?

The word "rational" is used somewhere in the description, but the way it 
is used, it seems merely to mean "designed" and tries to follow rules, 
not that it has anything to do with "logic" per se.  Most artificial 
languages are "rational" in that sense, but relatively few are claimed 
to be "logical".
