This last one isn't right, because it doesn't get the
specificity. Change it to:

 pisu'o lei broda = (piro) lu'o su'o lu'a le'i broda

as you probably intended, and I agree with you.

Yes.

What I would like would be gadri for:

lau'i broda         = lo klesi be lo'i broda
(ro) lau'a broda    = ro lu'a lo klesi be lo'i broda
(pi ro) lau'o broda = (pi ro) lu'o (ro lu'a) lo klesi be lo'i broda
