Comment (by jhpalmieri):

 With your example, using `D = Chain Complex(C.differential(), ...)` works
 better than with `C._diff`, because `C.differential()` returns a copy of
 the defining data, and so modifying it won't change `C`. It can be
 dangerous using hidden attributes, and the corresponding methods ought to
 be safer.

 If you are willing to give this a positive review, then #6101 should come
 next, but neither will get merged without the other.
