So IMHO, the reason, why KVC is looking also into the "get" version,
is due to historic reasons and is definitely not good coding style.
Apple might optimize this case away at any time.
Nope. Once it's documented, it isn't changing. They can't break
shipping apps.
Um, no, deprecated code is free to disappear at any time. Why do you
think you can't create System 7's open/save dialogs any more? It
usually won't disappear because it tends to upset developers - but you
should never rely on it always being there.
What?!?
Bull. Standard File went away because all of InterfaceLib went away, at
the advent of OS X and Carbon. Carbonization automatically required
major changes to all apps--everyone was forced to make huge updates to
their codebase for the many, many updated APIs. EVERY shipping app
required a rebuild to support Carbon. That's the kind of change that
happens once every 20 years. Apple is not going to obsolete all known
Cocoa apps for a very, very, very long time--and when they do, there
will be bigger changes than this, I promise you.
