"iemguts" kind of introduces a concept of "this".
most of the objects work on either "this" or "parent of this" or some
other "direct ancestor of this".

otoh, pd itself never actively supported dynamic patching.


iirc, the reason for obsoleting [namecanvas] is that it allows the
dynamic patching engine to get into an inconsistent (probably crashing)
state (true, there are other things that allow this as well, without
getting obsoleted).

anyhow, [namecanvas] has no concept of "this" either.
