[tlhIngan Hol] thoughts on the perfective {-pu'}

Yes, this disturbs me too. It seems "unnatural".

But the problem here is that De'vID said that this is the corrected version
of that sentence. Meaning that 'oqranD decided to keep this {-ta'}, which
shows that perhaps there's some grammar at work, which he hasn't yet
explained, perhaps as was the case with the {xlu' 'e' ylu'}.

And I'm wondering what is he ('oqranD) expecting before he clarifies this.
As was the case with the {tlheD} where he didn't answer if and when we'd
need to add {-vo'} on the departure point.
