I had some cases where I had to send e.g. to different preset banks to dump some data. The bank name was different depending on the selected bank.
There can be a number of reasons to send to different objects depending on other settings. But I agree that you can find different ways of doing it. I havn't used it in quite some time.

If you don't have any problem with using externals you can use

what's that for?
i mean: what is the advantage over [send] (without arguments)?
That's what I use. There is also a [iem_receive] in case that you happen to need that.
changing the receiver is dangerous (as in: could crash your system).
