Thanks for these examples. It might really be an exception, or unwritten
rule.

TKD, Chapter 6.3 "To be":
There is no verb corresponding to "to be" in the sense of "to be at a
place". Again, the pronouns are used, followed, where appropriate, by
verbal suffixes.
pa'wIjDaq jIHtaH.
pa'DajDaq ghaHtaH la''e'.
----------------
Perhaps the point is the phrase "where appropriate". This might mean,
that you do not *need* the suffix -taH. You can probably also be -lI' at
a place instead of -taH.
