I recall that discussion from a while back but I don't remember your reasons. Can you briefly reiterate them?
Because you never know when a get method may want to take additional parameters to control what's returned. Having combined get/set methods makes it hard to know if the a given method call is changing the object, or just specifying something about the return value.
