I agree with you, BUT…

that kinda clashes with what "Crystals" can do on the PitchFactor

IMHO, ParticleVerb is a bit of a poor mans "Crystals" – not the same but in the same ball park, but nowhere near as flexible.

I really hope Eventide bring us the VerbFactor.

I bought a Cathedral recently and while it's pretty cool, I am not blown away with it in the same way I was with all my Factor boxes.
