The word matters because Esperanto keeps reflexive and reciprocal apart, and English does not. sin says each of them loves himself; says they love each other. When you need to be unmistakable, use , and note that the -n lands on because that is the object. Reciproke as an adverb does the same job, and o covers reciprocity in the abstract, which is where the word earns its keep in the movement's rather committee-flavoured prose.
