> IIRC the TKW example preceeded the revelation of {'op} in SkyBox Card 7, which is the only example of {'op} known AFAIK.

The SkyBox card came out in 1995 according to http://klingonska.org/canon/search/?file=1995-sbx-s07.txt&query=%27op
The Klingon Way came out in 1996 according to Amazon.com
Of course, considering the process concept -> published book is probably longer than the process concept -> published trading card (in a pre-existing series), that doesn't necessarily mean the sentences were translated in that order.

To me, that would emphasize the fact that there are a number of humans that dare eat these things, rather than the fact that those who do are few.
