Ick. If this is adopted I'll have to rewrite my poems (which I believe were
being considered for the introductary reader, so I want them to stay
correct), and even I am not sure which attitudinals modify what! Besides,
sitting there reading it, .ua.u'a.ua.u'a sounds much better than .ua ge'e
.u'a.ua.u'a - I would have to come up with new poems using ge'e, and I kind
of like some of the older ones.

Also, you are expressing how you feel with them - it seems to me that if you
can say

do
*iu
**oi

Then you feel both {iu} and {oi} even if you feel one about the other. It
should be

do
*iu
*oi

or

do
*iu
** ge'e oi
