Re: TECH: a few points on cmavo



}1) Despite Nick's retreat from it, I still like the idea of a pro-sumti
}which eliminates the place it fills.

*shrug* As it pleases you. I can't see this becoming colloquial Lojban, but
then there's a lot of the ma'oste that isn't likely to become colloquial
either.

At first blush I thought the argument for a universal time interval was
false, but it does make sense after all. I'm not convinced that 'vague time
interval' is useless, and I think the universal will lead to some ramifications
of cmavo reinterpretation, but what the hey, I'll support it.

I still don't like this "only" or even "uniquely" stuff.
