Why not? What is the problem of "sprai"?

It's a single syllable, so it can't have penultimate stress.

... which is necessary for splitting spoken Lojban into words correctly. Without penultimate stress (which in turn requires two syllables), "sprai" merges with following words. (Lojban could have had a different stress rule, I think, but we're stuck with penultimate now.)
