To the contrary. First of all, the obvious use here is along the lines of:

  foo := Unscripted Player new.
  foo assureUniClass.

This makes good sense as it converts foo from an UnscriptedPlayer 
into a PlayerXYZ (usually attached to some morph). Returning the 
'original' foo is a good idea too if one considers that assureUniclass 
is an inplace modification and if the client of that code would need 
a reference to the original the *only* way to obtain it is via returning 
it from the method. I don't know if the original reference is ever used, 
but it makes sense to give the client some way to keep a reference 
to the original in case that is needed for some other purpose (undo
perhaps?).

Cheers,
