* people use it as if it were the new default system, but it's only meant to formalise a way for the people who would otherwise use much worse systems, not to replace or officially expand the sitelen pona cartouches |

*The system is often limited to morae at the start of words since there is no way to start from the middle. Using only the {{tp|[[nimi pu]]}} and {{tp|[[nimi ku suli]]}}, it is not possible to write {{tp|ju}}, and {{tp|nu}} and {{tp|pe}} can only be written after certain other morae: {{tp|[[anu]]}}, {{tp|kepe}} (from {{tp|[[kepeken]]}}), {{tp|[[lape]]}}, and {{tp|ope}} (from {{tp|[[open]]}}). In many similar cases, the system is reliant on the [[phonotactic]]ally questionable word {{tp|[[n]]}}, because the moraic {{tp|n}} cannot be taken from the start of any other ([[nja|non-obscure]]) word glyph without also taking the vowel. These issues are not present in the proposed {{tp|[[nasin sitelen kalama pi linja lili]]}}. |

*Cartouches may be [[ambiguous]] on the rare, but feasible, occasion that multiple words share a glyph. Examples include {{spt|[]}} representing {{tp|Ale}} or {{tp|Ali}}, and, less standardly, the case of [[abbreviation]]s with different pronunciations but unchanged glyphs. |
