This makes sense.

How about a version that doesn't evaluate the method argument? So
(meth t-string object param1 parm2 param3) => object.tString(param1, param2, param3)

This is obviously an abuse of slot-value . . . how about something
similar but which doesn't evaluate its arguments
(sv foo bar viz) => foo.bar.viz
