Wait, the proposal then is to get rid of all of SA, not just sa itself?  I don't think I want to live in a world without {si}.

ta'onai.  So, I haven't been able to completely follow the conversation fully.  Would the proposed merging cause cmevla to become valid selbri words?  e.g. something like {mi spagetis. citka}?  What would be the ramifications of this?  What would be the proposed default meaning of something like {ko'a cu djan ko'e ko'i}?

(It's about selma'o, not about specific words.)

The definition may be clear, but it's apparently a headache to implement.
Have a look for yourself in the normal grammar.
