In the Sun, any carbon nuclei are vulnerable to fusing
with a lithium nucleus to make oxygen. That depletes the
abundance of lithium. Lithium makes the 2 layer pyramids
seen on many elements in the 

Periodic Table of Nuclear Structure :

No, lithium is rare because hydrogen is common.
Lithium fuses (with hydrogen) in stars before hydrogen itself fuses
with hydrogen.

Li-6 will fuse with H to produce Li-7 (after an electron capture).
Then, Li-7 + H --> Be-8 --> 2 He-4 nuclei (2 alphas).
So both stable isotopes Li-6 amd Li-7 are rapidly destroyed in stars.

=============================
 Moroney sounds very reasonable 
to my model of the nucleus !!
