The optional commas before prepositional phrases are obligatory in Lope's grammar. Overkill, but maybe better than omitting them when they help (maybe not, too, since they break the flow of reading).

"sama sina la ..." means "If your equality is ..."

This make no sense to me.

Note, the hyper orthodox (but innovative) Lope, does not recognize that 'sama' is a preposition, even though it is in pu. Or maybe he doesn't allow non sentential 'la' phrases.

This make no sense to me.
"sama sina li lon, la ..." = "if your equality is ..."
"sama sina la ..." = "at your equality ..." (but I don't mean that)
"sama sina la ..." = "like you ..."

cf.

"tawa sina la ..." = "at your movement ..." (but nobody means that)
"tawa sina la ..." = "to you ..."

prepositions are at the beginning of a prepositional object. A prepositional object can't be alone. It need an action before.

A la phrase is for a condition:
A la B. = If A then B.

In your example the condition A is incomplete. You don't say what is "like you" or "to you".

"sama sina la ..." = "at your equality ..." I mean exactly this! So you are not right.
"tawa sina la ..." = "at your movement ..." I mean exactly this! So you are not right.

Much clearer and grammatical correct are these sentences. I think this is what you mean. Everybody can understand it.

sina toki e toki pona, kepeken pu. mi toki e toki pona, kepeken pu kin.
