nemokosch honestly it seems to me that the author of the "better and safer example" was simply confused by how it works 17:46
with the "decont index" (4160) I can't really see a clear conclusion - "decont" is not a specific operator, more like an intent, a usage 17:47
there are lots of checklist issues, I don't know how you tend to work on those 17:48

Remove $.a attribute from Foo class

Removed the declaration of the attribute $.a in class Foo because it is superfluous in this example.
Also, since the text mentions "self", use the `self.^name` syntax, rather than the bit more obscure `$.^name` syntax.

[Coke] Instead of merging into branches, rebasing keeps things cleaner in history. No worries either way 15:37
nemokosch They both have advantages. Involved changes might need to be rebased but as a main rule, it's better to merge into already reviewed branches than to completely rewrite them 15:46

It's not properly implemented, and probably never will be. It's not in the ecosystem either.
