From the NSManagedObject docs:

> As with any class, you are strongly discouraged from overriding the key-value observing methods such as willChangeValueForKey: and didChangeValueForKey:withSetMutation:usingObjects:.


Two theories as to why:

- People might forget to call super.
- KVO checks to see if -didChangeValueForKey: is overridden, and if not it calls the IMP directly, bypassing ObjC message dispatch.
