I don't use "naked" object construction syntax much. For any nontrivial object type I write a `new` or `init` function that wraps it, and then call that elsewhere.
I come from a C++ / Objective-C / Smalltalk background, where the general rule is that an object's fields should be private. Centralizing initialization gives you more control, e.g. if a field always needs to be initialized with a specific or computed value. (By "nontrivial", I mean objects that have their own logic and aren't just passive containers.)
