Heh, I'd think you where overdoing it ;) But there might be reasons I'm not 
aware of.
Actually, it would be interesting to know. 

A try at understanding: Seq24 is pattern based, right? Would you construct 
just one pattern that would repeat for the whole song? Or perhaps it's ease 
with creating slight alterations your after?

Not that I think that any of those  are a problem with MusE, I do it all the 
time. Just create a part that is of a given length, copy it and create 
alterations as you see fit. MusE also supports a part type called clone which 
means that one unique part can be placed at several places. Edit one of them 
and all of them are affected, this would simulate a repetitive track avoiding 
the drawbacks of needing several parts.

Trying to sync two sequencers seems like a lot of work for a simple thing.

It would require that Seq24 talk one of the syncronization protocols, 
preferably jack transport. It would work with MMC and such also, atleast with 
MusE (or rather, it has worked, don't know about the current status).
