​"Gate" is a metaphor, so it seems to me you just need another metaphor for what's going on. The best one I've come up with so far is entirely inappropriate for most cases, but gets the point across: instead of a "gate," you might think of it as a safety on a firearm. You can load and unload it

This is a great way to frame it, and it is indeed how I approach composition as well. It sometimes helps to think of a piece as a solution – maybe the only solution – to a set of constraints. Three limitations that I love in Pd off the top of my head: 1. The relatively small set of core objects

You can't. But I put [canvasinfo] in Pd-l2ork, and it has a [dir( method to get that.  It's in src/x_interface.c of Pd-l2ork git.  It's very simple functionality-- much simpler, for example, than figuring out the unspoken process for getting simple functionality into Pd Vanilla. -Jonathan

My struggles with it are not really limitations of pd. It's the way I have went about modelling a polyphonic synthesizer and using the tcl controls as MVC then making the controls a part of the preset machine. Everything is available for me to break the view away from the DSP its just that there
