If {SoH} weren't the first in the list, I'd have no problem with the
missing {Su-} on {SaH}. Casual speech is full of such minor errors.
But I think she'd already have the second person in mind when she got
to the verb and would have said it properly.

{wIboqbe'pu'} makes me wonder what subtlety of meaning I might be
missing. I'd be less uneasy with {wIboqpu'be'}.

The "no aspect suffix on the second verb" rule annoys me primarily
because I can't see it broken without thinking about how annoying it
is.
