This is untrue. The following code is legal:
class Point {
public function __construct(
public float $x = 0.0 { set => abs($value); },
public float $y = 0.0 { set => abs($value); },
) {}
}
The point about readonly is valid, and worth keeping, as is the "affects all
writes" question, but the code above is possible.
