Where is {xai} used? I can't remember any live usage except a bunch of sentences in Tatoeba.

I dunno, but it seems irreplaceable; I mean, "ri joi ra" is kinda unwieldy, unless you're writing a legal or other document requiring precise speech, in which case you'd probably be using {goi}-assigned pronouns instead.

Even {xai} as a generalized vocative had some usage for a short period of time, although irreplacability also counts.
