Could you please elaborate on why the :: operator feels out of place?
\ is a namespace separator.
:: is a class scoping separator.
You, yourself did decide to use nested :: for property hook scoping,
like parent::$x::set() - a property scoped within a class, having methods.
The same applies here - it's a class scoped within a class, having methods.
Breaking from these patterns seems very surprising to me.
