#Could {zo'e} be defined perhaps as {lo'e du}?

Surely lo'e du treats everything as one single Mr Everything. That seems
to me to be more like da than zo'e. Well, on second thoughts, it could
work to *define* zo'e as lo'e du, and then acknowledge that pragmatically
this may lead to an interpretation where lo'e du/zo'e is taken as a reference to your maternal grandfathers left knee, but at any rate I would not accept that zo'e as it is currently officially defined is equivalent to lo'e du.
