I know what you mean.

When I'm working on something of this sort where I'm not quite sure if I'm referencing the right thing, I'll use this:

function selectIt(theObj) {
  // Selects object, turns to page and zooms in on it
  app.select(theObj,SelectionOptions.replaceWith);
  app.activeWindow.zoom(ZoomOptions.fitPage);
  app.activeWindow.zoomPercentage = 200
 exit()
}

call with with the reference to the object of interest and the script will stop with the object selected, turned to the page it's on and zoomed in.
