value invocation again.

I have created a set of generic tasking functions/handlers in order to facilitate this I am using the value() construct. I am experiencing several unusual phenomena listed below.
1. The function invoked invokes handlers inside it's own card these handlers alter HMI components. Normally I refer to these components like so "hide button "a"" but when the functions/handlers are invoked using value() I receive object unknown. I have added "of me" which seems to have corrected the problem.
2. After several thousand invocations the function cannot invoke handlers/functions in it's own card or suddenly built-in statements like "try" are no longer recognized. The error I receive is handler unknown or statement invalid. Understand I have logged the execution of the function and the supporting handlers have been invoked several thousand times by this point!
I am not sure exactly what context the value() executes the function in. From my test the context is quite unclear.
