i guess you are not really aware that there _is_ a python object?
and bindings to all other kinds of languages, like lua,...

if this is the only solution you see then you might really have some
problems with the way Pd works :-)

however, despite my brilliant defense of the Pd language, i would like
to point out that there are indeed a lot of control-flow things that you
cannot solve easily within a patcher language.
some of them will probably always become unreadable spaghetti.

that's why my second language is C/C++ (which i find much mor readable
and esp. writeable than python)
