I got the idea from Swift (one of the things it does right) and it’s really nice to be able say "this = .value” instead of NSSomeLongNameOfSomethingValueKey. It only works with assignments but it really cleans up code. The reasons I suggested it was because some of my function calls were just getting stupid long and annoying to type plus difficult to remember (that’s important for programmers!) so the compiler could certainly help here.
