You're talking about {.i do catra ko}, I presume.

Maybe it's not important in the command, yes.
If you think it is equally important, then just use {ko} only
and don't mix {ko} and {do}?

Imagine the following scenario:

For some obscure reason you have to kill someone.
There's no way around it and you can't do anything about it.
You just got to kill someone.

and you tell someone {.i ei mi ba catra zo'e} (the zo'e
meaning "anyone" in this context as the "any" discussion is
still going on..)

Your dialog partner will probably be shocked and, if he's sure
he can't convince you of not doing it, might say something like

{.i e'o do catra ko} meaning
"Make yourself the one who you kill."

just some ideas...
