This is all very interesting and well-done. It boils down, I'd say, to a formative *-ar meaning "is (a)" as verbs ending in -(a)r tend to be stative and intransitive, and the suffix is used as a copulative. Thanks for sharing with us another insight into Silindion's grammar. I really admire your language for the enormous amount of thought and ideas you must have invested into it. Few artlangs I have seen so far display so much depth and complexity. Greetings, Jörg.
