Most of the developers of Pd use Pd in their own work, and therefore are very likely to fix problems they encounter. I rarely encounter crasher bugs because I try to fix them when they happen to me. So that points to something else: the area where the Pd devs work are the area where Pd will work best. I don't know any Pd dev doing a lot with VSTs or even MIDI, so that is not where Pd is going to shine.

pd works great with midi. (except sysex).
it can be VERY accurate if you start pd -noaudio.
