I was thinking the same.

Also, if the concern is "too many dsp objects", put them in sub patches / abstractions and use [switch~] to turn them off. This is what I do in our spatialization server patches at work where there are 4 levels of channel routing between 64 objects on each level. For instance, if there are only 4 outputs, all the other outputs are "switched off."

so, [throw~] can set the destination, why not use it?
