Re: [lojban] "Any" and {ro}

So now the only distinction between {le} and {lo} is veridicality?

I can't speak for anybody else, but to me this distinction is irrelevant. "lo" is usually veridical, which means you call things "lo broda" that you think brodas. However, you can just as easily use lo broda for something that you aren't sure brodas, .i.e "lo ru'a broda" - "something that I assume brodas". Because of this, veridicality is not something that we need "le" for either. I personally have no use for "le" (which is why I think it would be better to reassign it a new (unrelated) function, but this would digress too far from the topic of this thread.)
