#I don't agree that li'i can have a ce'u: I think li'i is essentially
#short for lifri le nu (note that le se lifri is an event).

The rationale for li'i was an amputee's real experience of an unreal event.
It creates an intensional context and hence is not really short for
{lifri le nu}, though it could be short for something with a du'u argument,
and meaning "have an experience as though x2 were true".
