Hmm, interesting. The relatively recently revealed spatial noun {Hay} can be used to produce a rendition that I believe retains the imagery, but I agree that a way to say “the other” as opposed to “another” would be useful. Perhaps if there’s a way to say “only” in the sense of “the only, unique”, that might help.

Surely you mean restoration project, to restore the original Klingon versions. Agatha Christie would be a bit different from other restored works in that I imagine her work is still under copyright, so some coordination with the rightsholders would be needed.
