I readily admit that the common person probably will not employ this word very frequently, but for a mathematician or quantum physicist (such as myself), it is quite nice to have around. I tried to remove it a bit from more common cmavo by giving it two diphthong vowel clusters - that way it does not use up more common/urgently needed cmavo space (by Zipf). I figure that more common and urgently needed cmavo will have fewer vowel clusters, so I did not want to use that space for something so remote as this word.
Obviously fi'o is useful, but can be really annoying when discussing these matters frequently on a daily basis. In my experience, this word was needed, so I made it (along with aigne). It is nice to throw in "eigen-" statements as additional arguments in a bridi, rather than as an entirely separate bridi.
I mean, to each their own, but I could use this word. I tried to remove it from areas of more dire/greater need. I could not justify its encroachment there, but its existence itself is nice.
