I think not, because your approach was the one used in the past, when [send] wasn't settable yet. But anyway: I also think, you're cheating, ecause you're actually changing the message box and thus creating many different message boxes on the fly, while the [s] isn't changed for variable length lists.
A messagebox is a messagebox. Unlike objectboxes, they are not magically recreated. Instead, the internal binbuf gets cleared. Sending "set" messages to messageboxes isn't much different from sending a float to a [hsl] or [nbx] in "init" mode... and even in "no init" mode, if you look at saved files closely.
I think you need some categorisation of state with more than two levels, e.g.:
- purely volatile state;
- something that will be saved in the patch;
- something that will also be reloaded from file;
- dynamic patching: obj, msg, connect, ...
