Completely agree.

With me or with the message I replied to, but you didn't quote?
 
When I see [foo new] I think C++.

Why? That's not C++ syntax.
 
I recently had a case where I needed alloc alone and init’ed the object later. 

Yes, and that's not a place where you'd use new, obviously. new is a handy
shortcut, not a replacement for all version of alloc/init*.
