Steven D'Aprano <steve+pyt...@pearwood.info> added the comment:

The documentation doesn't mention ``__set_name__``, but it does say that 
cached_property is useful for properties which are "effectively immutable".

The ``__set_name__`` error message is pretty cryptic, that seems to have 
something to do with this PEP:

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0487/

but why it is relevant here, I don't know. I would expect that cached_property 
should apply only to read-only properties.

So I think that at the very least, this needs better documentation and a better 
error message.
