Right, that's one of the differences between {na} and {na'e}. {je'a} and
{na'e} are not incompatible, while {ja'a} and {na}, all other things
being equal, are incompatible.
Or do you think {le gerku cu na'e barda} should entail {le gerku naku barda}?
The definitions are not very complete yet anyway, perhaps something
like "another contextually-relevant meaning"?
