The following are excuses:

-Because separating interface and core makes for a clear design.
And I say, ALL THIS IS LIES. Every single of such reasons are of no
concern to musicans. If I just want to make music, I would not care
about any of such reasons. I'd just fire up an application and make
music. All that seems to me more like academia-speech than real reasons
Maybe YOUR way of making music doesn't care. MINE does. Network
transparency is important to me, and DSSI is f'ing wonderful, and 400
thousand times better than VST for what I want to do.
"ALL THIS IS LIES" because your opinion's different? Right.
Nop. just meant that these are not the reasons why we dont have
VST-Like plugins, just the philosophical views of some programmers.
You can believe
them or not, but it's PROVEN that none of these are
needed to make music.
It's PROVEN that computers aren't needed to make music too.
Your point?
That simply means that in any other OS/Plugin systems, you dont really
need any of these things.
