You have to sent to pd-$0-subpatch ? (just like your "vis 1" message)

hello all, i'm having trouble sending an object creation message to a unique subpatcher [pd $0-subpatch] in an abstraction i'm building. i've tried sending "obj 250 70 ctlin" to both an appropriately named messagebox and a [s $0-subpatch] object. is patch-msg object construction not allowed for dynamic variables? technically i'm not sending a dynamic variable, becuase the $0 number is already "decompressed" by message time in my patch. i have no idea what's going on because [; pd-"decompressed $0"-subpatch vis 1 ( works fine.
i have no aversion to using [dyn~] - but i'll be calling numerous instantiations of this abstraction, and i've found before that using [dyn~] in that situation is a bit slow ... so i'd prefer to use patch messages if i can ...
