The init() method is not static, so there might be more than one
object in this class. These objects might want to have different
settings (which is, admittedly, quite improbable). IMHO it is bad
style to set a class related variable from an object member function.
But yes, the change shouldn't do anything in practice because these fields
will most surely be always identical in all objects of the class.
