It does, indeed.  The rule is that an un-FA-marked place falls into the first
empty place following the last FA-marked place, except that a sumti following
the selbri cannot fall into the x1 place (it must be put there by "fa").  Only
explicit FAs can cause a place to be occupied twice.  Places marked with
BAIs or tenses or "fi'a" are not counted by this rule.
