If there's something I definitely dislike in Lojban that's its continuous use of sound h. It seems as though I had a cough when I pronounce Lojban. I think it would be better if you allowed pinvor to be not only CV and CVhV, but also CVV (i.e. CV?V) and CVjV and CVwV at least. That would introduce more phonic variety. Just a suggestion.
