"sama lukin" li sama nimi "kiel okulo" lon toki Epelanto.

Reducing "sama tawa lukin" ("similar according to the eye") to "sama lukin", i.e. reducing "tawa" to "pi" (which gets omitted) seems unnecessarily ambiguous to me.

Of course, no one stops you from saying that "sama lukin" is "visually similar", or from using only "pi" instead of "tawa", "lon", "tan", etc. But it would still be unnecessarily ambiguous to me.
