[getdir] is now (soon) covered by Pd's [file]
it's already covered by [pdcontrol]'s 'dir' method.
I still have to better check the new [file] object, I'm assuming it overlaps with [else/dir].
And yeah, [uzi] is confusing in that regard, but I guess it had to be
done this way because the original was using this order.
it is confusing and not the only example in cyclone, but maybe others make more sense, like a rightmost outlet that fires a bang when something is done with as in cyclone/seq, where a bang tells you the sequence is over - that's the same with [readsf~] by the way. If your object is more like [uzi], then it makes sense to have the leftmost outlet firing last.
