Insisting on the current property semantics was a sizeable mistake

this community, and I am sorry we gave into it.
Aside from the fact that the behavior of -property isn't the
default,
what's the problem with @property?
Other than it being completely useless, requiring more rote
memorization, and fomenting time-wasting discussion? None.
So, you prefer the situation where any function with no arguments can be
used as a getter and any function with a single argument can be used as
a setter?
No. That would be a false choice.
I'm not saying that those are the only choices, but you seem to think that the
current situation is worse than what we had before, which I don't understand.
The current situation looks all around better to me.
There's a phrase in Romanian that quite applies: "From the lake into the
well".
