OK, I probably took something you said about cmavo to be about all
words. I don't understand the rationale for being so strict with
cmavo but not so with fu'ivla and cmene. It can't be about
pronounceability because while you disallow {kua broda}
you allow the fu'ivla {kuabroda} which is pronounced identically.
I'm going back to allowing (i/u) vowel as syllable core, including
in cmavo, unless there is a convincing reason to forbid this. It's
not hard to make the formal rule for cmavo different than for fu'ivla
and cmene, but it complicates matters for the user: you have to
remember that some CVV sequences will break away from a following
lujvo and some won't, for example.
