The problem with allowing only set hooks is that readonly class won't be compatible with hooks, I think that is one of the main motivations behind this RFC.
Yes. The point is that the semantics users expect from `readonly` are fundamentally incompatible with a get hook that could return arbitrarily changing values whenever you read from a property.
Proposing to change this is like proposing an RFC that allows storing a `string` in a property with type `array`. It would be a massive break in user expectations for a feature that existed since 4 PHP versions (in case of readonly).
