    Tl;dr: don’t use @property during design, it’s almost certainly the wrong pattern. But use it to retrofit a method to a value.

      Yup. I pretty much only use it if I need to ensure new values are valid or provide a default value.

      I do the same in other languages, like C# and JavaScript. Properties are cool, but should be quite rare.
