I don't like the duality, but I *do* like (in some situations) the
object-with-dynamic-attributes style of access. Basically, when access
is predominantly via literal strings and heavily nested,
obj["element"]["sub"]["another"]
is *far* more punctuation-heavy and (IMO) difficult to read as a
consequence, than
obj.element.sub.another
