I was elaborating on a point made by R.Wieser in response to your
statement (quoted at the top of my previous post) that you "consider it
a synth content object. Not four objects that should be stringed
together."  Now you're saying the exact opposite:  that your object is
composed of other objects.

But my point is that it depends on how you look at it.  Sometimes all
you want is the high-level abstraction of "one object".  At other times
you need the detailed view that it is a bunch of smaller objects.
