Are you saying that in real work EOF applications, this "maintenance burden" didn't really exist?

To a very large extent, yes.

Note that in EOF you were required to define a schema (the EOModel) that described the entities in your application. This made it easy for controllers to know what properties model objects had. I suspect we could have a similar discussion about this issue as there is about bindings — is this really object-oriented? I would be interested in others' perspectives, but as I noted in the bindings thread I don't have time to devote deep thought to this issue at the moment. My usual take on this is one of pragmatism — does the technology make the developer's life easier, even if it wouldn't necessarily score full marks in an academic CS project assignment. In the case of EOF, it certainly did make the developer's life a lot easier.
