Hey, it's that dead horse again, let's beat it!

Andrei and I and several others discussed this ad infinitum. You will never convince Andrei that his design is wrong :)
Andrei is the one who complained that it's difficult to know whether 'byLine' is a property in the first place. I'm just explaining why it is, and what should be done.
 I'm starting to think Anrei likes ambiguous semantics.  :-)

I'll tell you what I'd have liked: a landslide of responses to my question revealing my mistaken ways and clarifying without a shade of a doubt that byLine should be a @property. Or not. (I don't even care which.)

It's been mentioned before that tough decisions need to be made in many areas of programming. Deciding what is a property and what is not is no different.

Except it has no reward associated with it.

Andrei
