So, I am curious as to why the default (retain) behavior of

This is specified by atomicity, not 'retain'.
"the goal of the atomic implementation is to provide robust accessors"

And, is there a way to tell @synthesize to use one of the other
approaches, or do I need to make such a property @dynamic and handle
the setter/getter myself?
Use nonatomic.
"If you specify nonatomic, then a synthesized accessor for an object
property simply returns the value directly."
