OK, so I just responded a message where I said:

And, as it is wont to happen, I realized how this might be so as soon as I
had clicked the 'send' button, grr.

So if an attribute is defined without an 'is' option, no accessors will be
generated, as the documentation says somewhere. But then, if in a subclass
and attribute is redefined in that way, it looks like the accessors of the
superclass are still used for the subclass, and with them, the method
modifiers?

My head hurts :-)
