Yes, it sure is.  When you start with Object, it's the better way to
go.  There isn't any difference in the end, you can use any of these 2
ways.  But the second one is redundant, with obj.getData() you're
already "grabbing" the mesh, so no need for the objData = NMesh ...
line, better to use way # 1) above.
