It's being used to design good architecture.
With all respect, an architecture is good if and only if it
adequately addresses the application requirements. It could be
argued that, architecturally pleasing as the current concept is, if
it's unable to accommodate MIDI in a way that several of us here feel
is necessary (and I agree with Martijn that processing MIDI streams
is a completely reasonable user expectation, and a necessary
functionality in any studio), then there's at least a possibility
that it's .not. the best possible architecture. This is not meant as
a knock at anyone in particular.
In general terms, first you figure out what you need to do -- say, in
a Requirements phase -- and .then. you come up with the nicest
architecture you can given those constraints.
