Why do you say I'm not calling a constructor?

And that still doesn't answer the question of why can't we have
an automatic field-wise constructor for classes...
Classes aren't as simple as structs, they have hidden members,
inherited members... Technically speaking the compiler is even
allowed to change the ordering. They may be other reasons I'm not
aware of / aren't thinking of right now.
