More common in the world at large. Ordinarily, if you say "set', it is assumed you mean C-sets (even if your hearer knows there are other kinds). In Lojban, however, C-sets have always occupied a secondary place, behind whatever {lo broda} and the like referred to (and those have been so truly odd things at times). The reasoning was that, since in set theory C-sets were used in a way that would not do what was needed, they could not be used in Lojban to do what was needed. It turns out this is not true but does require some added work, so we stick with L-sets (or equivalent) which do things more easily and are finally respectable entities. My point is just that C-sets can do somethings a bit more tidily that L-sets and should get used more in
Lojban.
