He actually asked if it could be done without installing PD. So technically, no it's not possible, since the PD executables would need to be distributed with the patch. On top of that, a pdsettings or pdrc file would need to be sent (and installed properly) to use any externals or other path-oriented stuff, if I understand how that's being done these days.
The discussion in the archives (at least my part of it) was all about how this standalone business is a relic of commercial software thinking. Let's agree to both be correct ;-)
Yes, you're correct. ;)
(Though: Even with Max-standalones are distributed together with a "runtime" which in the end is just a stripped down Max. A stripped down Pd would for example be just the stuff in "bin", no help, not extras.)
