I'm am trying to figure out if there's a way to automatically rename a

I want to open up a second instance of my patch without "cross
contamination" of data.  Maybe there's a completely different way of
going about this that I'm unaware of, any help would be appreciated.

If your patch used [abstraction $0-1] [abstraction $0-2] etc, there would be no risk of conflicts (*). But then maybe you could just use $0 inside the [abstraction] itself: $0 is a unique number for each loaded file.

(*) but note: 1 and $0 are numbers, while $0-1 is a symbol
