He doesn't mean to have everything work like the DSP. In that case there
wouldn't be hot inlets nor cold inlets and so you wouldn't need them to be
reconfigurable. He's talking about making them configurable.
If you make everything work like the DSP (that is, one message per block,
or one message per sample, whichever), then there are quite a few things
you can't do anymore or have to do in different ways: can't avoid sending
a message during a tick, and can't send more than one message during a
tick, and can't recurse in any way, even to a cold inlet (you can't sum
the values in a signal using just [+~] connected to itself...).
