This isn't easy, is it?
I think {xo'e/zi'o} must mean that this particular argument place
is irrelevant to the concept.

So a {sorcu fo zi'o} is a supply whose location is irrelevant,
e.g. because it is portable, which makes the {te sorcu}
more like a {vasru}, but with an added emphasis on the
actual quantity of material itself.

And a {nu zbasu fi zi'o} must be an act of creation where
the question of materials does not arise, perhaps because
the {se zbasu} is totally abstract.  This begins to look
like a {nu finti}, but without the "purpose" place.

Maybe {zbasu fa zi'o} is something like {jmaji zi'o}.

I share your doubt about a general _rule_ for interpreting these.
