SuStel's advice was the single best piece of advice I ever received
concerning Klingon. To make our choices, we need to not depend too much on
the opinions of others. Sometimes, we must think on our own. Krankor and
Agnieszka have made their decisions; you've made yours. (BTW: I tend to
agree with you. But like you said, MO hasn't explained this one too much.)

It all comes down to being understood. If we can be understood by using
another method that we like better (for instance, I personally dislike using
{vaj} as a "conjunction"), then that's great.

This is why Klingon is so great: we CAN choose from many possibilities.
