> {buska} is just an ordinary predicate

It's about as ordinary as djica and nitcu, which IMO are maldefined.
Kalte too. (They should take a du'u or tu'a x2. Since they don't,
we should forget about them and use lujvo replacements for them.)

So, would you say that my definition of {buska} in terms
of {sisku} is not a proper definition? What is it lacking?
How is it maldefined?

As for your identification of {lo'ei broda} with {tu'a lo broda},
that is not quite correct. The proper identification is with
{kair-... tu'a lo broda}, or more precisely with
{kair-... tu'o ka ce'u du lo broda}. In other words, you
cannot eliminate {lo'e} unless you change the predicate.
