Please stop. We already know what you think about this (from the last time you complained). This adds nothing. For every anecdotal example like this, there’s another one like this:

>    self.webView = WKWebView(frame: rect, configuration: myParams);

where it adds clarification, not clutter.

Please stop. Code completion is crappy right now. It’s not a design flaw, it just isn’t finished yet. If you can’t handle that, stop using Swift until it’s more polished. Seriously, if it’s going to annoy *you* to the point where you keep annoying *us*, stick with Obj-C for another year.

Please stop. You can’t acquire the same familiarity with Swift in 2 months that you have with Obj-C over however many years it’s been.
