Which makes you atypical. Not Robinson Crusoe, but unlike most scripters.

I'm going to assume from that you're talking theoretically, and you haven't done it much, if at all. Because using NSAppleScript or OSAScript and then unpacking the resulting NSAppleEventDescriptors yourself, rather than using ASObjC and letting it handle the unpacking for you, strikes me as a not-so-mild form of masochism.
