OK, that makes more sense. 

In that case, CLL-lo'e (lo'e1) could perhaps be defined in terms 
of Kind-lo'e (lo'e2) as something like:

lo'e1 broda = lo'e2 broda na'oku

CLL-lo'e = Kind plus typicality. 

If so, isn't the restricted CLL-lo'e a waste of cmavo? A Kind-lo'e could
include CLL-lo'e and easily and accurately specify its restricted 
application with {na'o} when so required:

lo'e cinfo na'o xabju le friko
Lions typically live in Africa.

mi pu viska lo'e cinfo bu'u na'ebo le friko
I saw lions outside of Africa.

Right. It's just that CLL-lo'e was being touted as "Mister", which it
is not. It can only be used for what "Mister" is or does typically.
