That's the point; if it is postulated that CVC did not occur until post-exilic times, then we have to add the vowel to "l-" ... It's why I included the "l-" Technically, on the same grounds I should have included a vowel for "b" in the 29th.
I think you have missed my point. If the alef in l-'adonay(a) is silent, we have la-do-na-ya, all CV syllables. You also have a non-permitted consonant cluster in "ha-artza" (even taking "tz" as one consonant), oddly considering that there isn't one in the Masoretic Hebrew; this needs to be something like ha-aratza.
