For example, I am reasonably certain that I will never need to write code

use Send, and I can always use Dispatch?
The "send" command has one feature unique to it: the ability to delay
its triggering until a specified amount of time has passed:
send "message" to "object" in 200 millisecs
If the "dispatch" command had that I'd use it exclusively. But for now,
there are benefits to both.
