What I wrote is dependent on an environmnet where the C<method> keyword
is used to write methods that are distinct from subroutines, and 
also, a C<sub> with the same name could be written, causing the sub to
be called in procedural-style accesses.

Distinguishing methods from subroutines syntacticly is trivial, we already
knows what happens when a procedure is called as a method.
So if the author wants to distinguish he can write both versions!  One
will probably generally wrap something up and call the other.
