Isn't this completely against what the CLL says?
I thought triphthongs were illegal, and essentially that says they -
are- legal.
While it claims to not make a difference, I do hear/say one
between .A,ionys. and .AI,onys.

Except that Lojban words are penultimately stressed, so it would be .aIOnys. vs. .aiOnys.
