You can report on his knowledge, but you wouldn't call "knowledge"
his mistaken beliefs, even if he does call it knowledge. Just as
you don't call them truths even though he does call them truths.

So you want {djuno} to be synonimous with {jinvi} or with {birti}?
Why have the word at all?

Every single Lojban word automatically inserts the judgments of
the narrator. Which word doesn't?
