I don't have any good reasons to defend my more complicated solution
against your simpler suggestion of using [timer]. ;)

But [timer] would be as precise or wrong as [vline~] as both are
getting their time from the Pd clock with possibly in-block starting
points, while readsf~ will start quantized to the block size, if I'm
right.
