Somewhat OT, but whatever:
lojbab:
[...] it changes the nature of the underlying relationship/predication. To allow that would destroy one of the
fundamental logical parts of the language, which is that even if a place
is elided, it is still implicitly a part of the predication/relationship.
Which has just reminded me of why the problem (nabmi be mi) of connecting predicates with JE bugs me so much. Usage seems to disregard all non-explicit places in that very common kind of construction. Provocatively speaking, if we uphold 'one of the fundamental logical parts of the languages', super-common stuff like CLL 12.12 {ti blanu je zdani} is nonsense.
