For the same reason, I prefer the interpretation of "all true or all false" for {go} and "one and only one of them is true" for {gonai} to the interpretation of grouping of binary connectives.

One problem with that interpretation for "gonai" is that it doesn't go well with "go ... ginai ... gi ..." and such. The natural Lojbanic interpretation is for "nai" to negate the following connectand. So "gonai A gi B gi C" would be true when A differs in truth value from B and from C.

"One and only one of them" is more useful, but hard to reconcile with the general pattern.
