I was moving something setup in a similar manner to the n-body (or
attempting to move) into a qtz, and I realized that even though the Feedback
patch allows you to publish outputs in the context of the qtz, when the
resulting QCPatch is used as a macro, it won't work because it is considered
a consumer macro with outputs!

So, why is it that even though a QCPatch/qtz, can be a consumer macro and
publish outs with the Feedback patch (eg., it's not a image unit), it
doesn't work when you try to use the resulting macro in a complex qtz (eg.,
a qtz that triggers multiple qtz files/macros)?

Is there any way around this without resorting to lopping out the
provider/processor patches, and putting them in the root of the
composition?

How can I replace the feedback setup in this with a more traditional setup,
or get it working so that I can use this macro inside of a consumer? I've
done many a feedback loop in my day using splitters and multiplexers, but it
doesn't quite seem to work with the n-body example. Going further, it won't
even load into a Render In Image (not *even* a consumer macro)! How can
anyone use the Feedback patch reasonably if this is the case?
