SuStel:
There is no such rule that I'm aware of. You can't have a type 5
noun suffix on the first noun of a noun-noun construction, but
there's no rule about it migrating.

This is an odd rule since it's non-trivial trying to come up with an
example where you'd be tempted to put the Type 5 on the first noun.
Maybe I've just been following this rule so long that I can't think of
a reason to want to break it...
SuStel:
Krankor has been known to break this rule with his {mIvDaq yIH} "tribble
in a helmet" (i.e., cat in the hat). Okrand also breaks the rule on the
Bird of Prey poster, though I can't recall the exact phrases. I've seen
lots of people on this list break the rule in the same way, so it's not
non-trivial.[]
FYI, examples of {-Daq} in the BOP Poster:
It occurs to me that the grammar of brief labels, chapter headings,
isolated phrases, etc. may be different than that of full sentences and,
especially, connected literary prose. Perhaps more a difference of style.
