But we digress, can we focus on whether to add another isset()-like construct, or a property_is_initialized() function, ideally with a companion opcode to speed it up?
I apologise for the digression. However, there is some relevance, because asking for not just a new function, but a new opcode, suggests you have a use case that is both common and performance critical; apologies if I've missed it, but have you actually said what that use case is?

Notice that Nikita said "conceptual language complexity", not "implementation complexity" - regardless of how simple this is in implementation, it's one more thing to document, maintain, and answer questions about.
