I can't think of any reason the current way would be better, but I may be missing something.
i guess the reason is: simplicity on the implementation side. pd has no idea about which part of the object has been deleted, it just destroys the old object (e.g. [t b b b]) and instantiates a new object (e.g. [t b b]); btw. sometimes it is pretty hard (even for humans and cats) to know which part has been deleted by just looking at the "before and after"
i guess we all agree that it would be a fine feature. i guess nobody wants to implement it, though...

Didn't think of that. I recall that now, the old object is deleted. Oh well.
