la lojbab cusku di'e I think your proposal about le/lo goes in the right direction, though you still talk of default quantifiers while the best assignment is that they should have no quantifier: they should be singular terms.
I think that if du'u abstractions refer to facts/relations in the real world i.e. being realized, si'o abstractions might be used to refer to facts/relations that might or might not be realized or realizable.
Does anybody use {du'u} that way? I think we use {du'u} for
any relationship, realized or not. The issue that comes up
often is about {nu} and whether or not it should apply only
to things that happen in the sense that mlatu applies only
to things that are cats.
but I think I've also talked about si'o as the neutral, least restrictive featured abstraction,
Isn't that {su'u}? What do you mean by "featured"?
