Consider:
jbena x1 is born to x2 at time x3 [birthday] and place x4 [birthplace];
What does {mi fi li 1966;10;17 ba'o jbena} mean? That the relationship
between "mi" and "1966;10;17" is no longer occurring?
Is {mi fi li 1966;10;17 cu jbena ca le cabdei} true?
Does it make sense at all to use a tense with that predicate?
Or with any predicate that mentions times?
mu'o mi'e xorxes
