now, if i understand it right, using: [r mysynth] [route freq amplitude] causes less pollution than something like this: [r mysynth-freq] [r mysynth-amplitude] is that right?
neither causes what I call pollution. You have to be using $0 prefixes or some other form of dynamic symbol creation, in order to have that many symbols.
the former case is better because mysynth can be made local like $0-mysynth, while freq and amplitude don't get a prefix, so you're saving on local symbols.
but really, this matters only if you have a lot of abstraction instances (e.g. several hundreds).
