Just curious...
Completely depends on your code and the order in which the handler needs
information.
Just as a (completely contrived) f'rinstance, what if the code looked
like this:
local foo
on finishUp
send "saveMe" to card id 1002
delete variable foo
end finishUp
on saveMe
put foo into URL "file:/tmp/saved.txt"
end saveMe
In that case, if you added the " in 0 milliseconds" you'd be out of
luck, as the variable "foo" would be gone. It wouldn't cause an error,
as saveMe would assume "foo" to be the local variable defined at the top
(or if it didn't exist it would be created (and empty)).
