{jbini} already allows for non-sets though. I missed {bende} because the
restriction is not in the definition field. I don't know why I missed
{traji}.

I am happy with {gunma} now. x1 is the reified group, a single thing,
and x2 are the individuals as individuals, many things, a non-distributive
place. I couldn't make any sense of the place structure before
understanding plurals a la McKay.

{cmima} clearly says it's not only for sets. The difference between
{cmima} and {se gunma} is that x1 is distributive in {cmima} (each
member) and non-distributive in {se gunma} (all members together).

You can use {ku'a gi ... ginai ...} for it, if it's the one
I think you mean.
