What's wrong with {bancu lo kamvrude jo'u lo kampalci}?

I just feel, that the book with "jo'u" is about the distinction between 2 separate entities, while with "jo'e" is about "existence" of (the set of) both.

The key is the dichotomy. The title has to express the distinction between "good" and "evil" that Nietzsche meant to go beyond with his argument.

 
In the context of "...no universal morality, that distinguishes...", with "jo'u"  we still can have the "...universal morality that joins/mixes...", while with "jo'e" we are denying both

The things connected with "jo'u" is unmixed; they are "joined" but not mixed. A mixed pair is made with "joi".
 

So with "lo" -- are we speaking about 2 separate entities, or the whole abstraction of "(.*)ness"?

"bancu"s x2 must be the 2 separate abstract entities (good and evil) the distinction of which old-school philosophers had tried to make, and x1 must be something with no such distinction.
