It does use isKindOfClass, I wasn’t trying to be 100% correct on the fluff, 
just showing giving an example of the type of thing going in in property 
assignment.

I didn’t write that part it was like that and by all account it sort of worked.

I may just revert back to the non-ARC version do manual Memory Management as 
ARC seems very difficult to debug, especially since you can’t get at things 
like “retainCount” or override “retain”, “release” etc.
