<p>Well, think about it. The taboo doesn't say "don't use <b>-vIp</b>
with a first-person prefix unless there's a <b>-be'</b> on it."
The rule actually states, "This suffix is rarely used with a
prefix meaning <i>I</i> or <i>we.</i> Though it is grammatically
correct, it is culturally taboo."</p>
<p>I don't care how (inappropriately) literally anyone wants to read
that, the obvious point of the taboo is to not admit fear. If you
want to say <b>pagh latlh be' ghop wIbamvIp,</b> you're not
admitting fear; you're denying fear.</p>
