Jorge is referring to the statistical mode (sort of like a lion of the type that is a numerical plurality), and John is referring something more like the statistical average (an abstract entity, like a set). I think the CLL defines lo'e as the latter; the former could be le fadni cinfo.
I don't think I'm referring to the mode. I meant to answer
the other post where you mentioned this but I accidentaly forgot
about it. Couples in general can have 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, any number
of children (up to some indeterminate upper bound), not just the
mode, which is probably zero, depending on which couples we're
talking about.
{mi nelci lo'ei cakla} does not mean that I like the most common
type of chocolate.
