What's the difference between using {e'i} and using {ko}? When would you
use {e'i} without {ko}, and vice versa?
{ko} is a vague imperative, it can be used for requests and commands
alike, it can be polite or not.
{.e'i} (under the proposed definition) is explicitly a command, much
like {.e'o} is explicitly a request.
