The value of this proposal, apart from more flexibility and less ambiguity, is that stems no longer alternate between stressed and unstressed depending on whether they have prefixes attached to them (think {{t|<u>juı</u>taq}} vs. {{t|bụ<u>juı</u>}}). As another pleasant side effect, poly[[raku]]ic words in {{done|3}} are now possible (like {{t|äımu}}, which before was ambiguous with the mid-falling allotone of {{t|ạımu}}).
