The restrictive side of the argument says that /someone/ fired the 
torpedo and set its goal intentionally, and it is the firer's 
perspective that is generating the *-lI'.* Do you disagree with this 
argument?

      This does confirm that the thing does not itself have the
      intention to do what it does, a torpedoe does not "think" or
      "intend" to do what it does. The speaker does also not "intend"
      what is happening. He is neutral as describing what is going on:
      {chollI' peng} is to me the same as {pumlI' nagh}.
