It’s a little disturbing that private instance variables can be altered so easily, but then I suppose the same thing could just as easily be done by a third-party monkeying with the ivar in a category.
No programming language with direct memory access is ever entirely safe. And one that's defined as a strict superset of C can't ever be more safe than C itself is. Since C lets you typecast pointers indiscriminately, that's a pretty big barn door to close after the horses have bolted.
