What Krankor sees as an unforgivable problem with Klingon, I see as a 
"that's just the way it is" issue.

*jolvoy' tI'taH jonwI'. vIbejtaHvIS HIv jagh.*

There is absolutely no reason why all this has to be a single sentence 
in Klingon. Klingon thrives on multiple, short sentences being joined 
contextually.
