This is not true, for example the following works:
extension BinaryInteger {
var signumAsComputedProperty: Self {
if self < 0 { return -1 }
else if self > 0 { return 1 }
else { return 0 }
}
}
BinaryInteger is a prosocol. But the following will also work:
struct S {
var computedPropertyReturningSelf: S { return self }
}
So I'm not sure what you mean.
