It's forcing the same result as your fork/delay code was trying to do in a
more direct, efficient and immediate way.  Sometimes you need a morph to
draw itself at least once, which #doOneCycle is doing, to get some internal
state you need to access/modify fully initialized.  If you find you need to
do this constantly with your own code, it may be a warning sign that you're
doing something wrong.  (not always: sometimes you know exactly what and
why you're doing it and it's the only way to achieve the result you need
for a complex set of Morph state)  In this case, I think the assumption
that the script is being called before Morphic is fully up and running is
correct and this is probably a bug to be fixed in the command line handling
code rather than anything you're doing wrong.
