Script Objects

Last week, I was invited to talk to some Cocoa programmers about AppleScript. I don't know Cocoa, they don't know AppleScript. One of them is very interested and we are in an email discussion about AppleScript. He insists on writing everything as a script object because, as he explained, they look familiar since they contain "data and methods".

I've never written a script object and I'm not familiar with "data and methods", so I'm not sure what he's getting at, but he is beginning to make some sense.

Which brings me to my question ...
What can I do with script objects that I absolutely could not do without them?
(Or, should I continue to ignore them?)
