This is purely a practical issue. If your patches don't work

fixing bugs. Why not just write separate bugfree versions and
leave the existing names to be compatible objects? Basically,
unless desiredata is compatible, it not very useful to Pd users.It's not my job to force you to figure out what's the trouble that
you want me to get into.If you don't even look like you've read what I write and just
restate the same thing, it's not communication.
In the past you have said that you want to make DesireData compatible
with Pd. I am pointing out a possible incompatibility. If you don't
want to make it compatible, that is your choice.
