It most certainly does *not*.

{naku mi pu klama .ije mi ca klama}

definately still means that I ca klama. It's a seperate sentence,
and sentences are veridical.

The version you snipped for BAI+NAI relegated the original bridi to
a {lo nu} clause, which are, IIRC, *not* veridical.

It's a radical difference.
