Krankor's grammar is /not/ to be interpreted as canonical, or even good. 
Much of what he wrote was composed before a lot of later information was 
obtained, and Krankor largely refuses to update his understanding of the 
language when new information appears or when our understanding of the 
grammar changes.

Upon his learning of something new Okrand has said regarding the 
grammar, I have heard him flatly refuse to follow it simply because he 
didn't like it.
