That's cheating! :P
I thought the fun part was to try to do as much as possible with the
components without having to fall back to scripting. For practical
purposes sure, i find myself actually using the function component to
avoid using a list of other vector, scalar, etc. components. But
wheres the line? I'm afraid if i learn too much vb.net i'll end up
ditching grasshopper and installing visual studio. I guess the line is
what takes the least amount of effort for what you are trying to
achieve.
