There’s a difference in relationship between compound sentences and sentences with clauses. You can drop the {‘ej} and both statements make sense independent of one another — the conjunction serves to link them logically.

With the -meH (or a -moH) statement, both parts of the sentence are intrinsically interrelated you can’t separate them apart and have them make sense without one another.
