In a nutshell, is Pd reenterant?

In using an abstraction, is the code loaded only once and used in all instances? Or, in other words, is it more space efficient to use abstractions?

No, it's more space-efficient to use abstractions, it's just brain-efficient (which is often more important).

But this has nothing to do with the thing that I know as reentrancy, which in pd terms, would be about whether you can send to the hot inlet from a chain of actions that eventually came from the same object, and still keep the documented behaviour; it's about whether you can make recursion of control-flow.
