Did Bilodid actually understand what "animacy" was/is?

Hi, 

Ukrainian nouns like tel'atko, dyt'atko, nemovl'atko, etc., which have the 
suffix -ko and are of Neuter gender, may take -ovi in LocSg and DatSg, 
according to Bilodid 1969, probably because of animacy. These nouns take 
GenSg ending for AccSg (animacy syncretism) or NomSg ending (the usual 
Neuter Acc=Nom syncretism)?
Thanks!!
