Then some of the monosyllabic cmavo will have to go... :)

I think {du'u} should change places with {du}. That would also help
discourage the use of {du}, which should be used much less than it is
(if it should be used at all outside maths, which I doubt).

Let's see... That one could get {lau}. Actually no, I had thought that
{lau} should go to {la'e}, so I'll think of another one for {lo'e}.

Not needed much. :)
(Usually we don't mean to refer to individuals when using the
unqualified plural, but I know you disagree, we talked about this
before.)

I use {du'u} in spite of it, I think I should use {lo'e} more.
