This one however is very strange, and I'm surprised you can

hand-wavy introduction of a new attribute without any sense of

You are very much not alone.
I didn't articulate it very clearly, but I am super not happy
with such a new attribute.
I'm not crazy about it either, but it may be a necessary evil to
avoid breaking code (although it doesn't entirely avoid that, as
has been demonstrated).
