That's right. It's particularly obvious as a result of:

Actually, I wasn't, but delegation sounds like a good idea.
The area of copying functions in a object is a "painful" area in Rebol. I'd
really like to put a path in an object like:
o: make object! [f: func [] []]
oo: make o []
and see that the result of:
probe oo
would be something like:
make object! [f: o/f]
