As far as my notes are concerned, the only canonical example really is
{maQoch 'e' wIQochbe'.} (We agree to disagree.)

That means that {Qoch(be')} might at least be a labile verb, which can have
an object, but doesn't have to (as common in Klingon). The object of
{Qochbe'} here is {'e'}, so it seems logical that one can indeed agree or
disagree with a fact or a statement or an idea. I don't see a reason why it
shouldn't.
