The "internal accessor method visibility and callability" point should really be "should accessors be implemented as magic methods?" Might help to clarify what the discussion was actually about. 2. I never really meant the "DateTime $date;" syntax as just a shorthand notation for the automatic setter with typehint. Rather it was meant as an alternative way to do the typehinting in the first place. I.e. instead of public $date { set(DateTime $date) {} } you would do public DateTime $date { set($date) { } } (like in C# for example). I would have preferred this way (mainly because it allows to typehint even without specifying accessors), but I can also live without it ^^ Thanks for your work on this, Nikita
