I think that very often, people use {'e'} or {-meH} or {-taHvIS} to join Klingon sentences into one which would be expressed using a single sentence in English, but there's no reason the Klingon translation doesn't just use multiple grammatically independent sentences.

I agree completely with this message. Not only does it avoid grammatical issues, not only does it appear in canon a lot, but it's also a style that Okrand has told us is true about Klingon.

I warn the reader, however, to avoid a plodding pace. Too many short sentences, especially where a longer sentence would be an elegant or expressive one, is really boring to read. Okrand doesn't say

'uSDaj chop.

chev.

His tone says 'uSDaj chop; chev. The separate sentences form a complete idea when placed together. Don't string together unrelated ideas because you think you're supposed to shove short sentences together. The idea here is that grammatical independence does not necessarily equal a complete idea.
