'e' Xlu' vs net X, was Re: grammar questions

Is there any reason that "'e' Xlu'" has to have a different meaning from "net 
X" in order for it to be allowed? By analogy, just because we have "wen", 
that doesn't mean that "jar ret" is invalid. Certain things can have more 
than one way of being said.
