I think the idea is that some developers may have fields on their models called “url” or “absolute_url” and having a property by that name would cause naming conflicts. (Actually, I think I ran into this issue once with my own projects.) Creating any property on a model in the Django core would result in potential naming conflicts for all the projects that are out there. Of course, there’s nothing stopping you from doing it in your local project, and you may want to create your own custom models.Model class to inherit from and use in all of your models.

Things like get_absolute_url for example.
