Perhaps it's better because :)

@classmethod
def func(self): pass

is better than

def func(self): pass
func = classmethod(func)

Certainly! It don't intent to replace this way of defining/modifining
properties. First, it is an example of "with" statement application.
Second, suggested approach allow to write your example in the
following way:

class C(object):
    with property as x:
        def get(self): return self._x
        def set(self, value): self._x = value
        def del(self): del self._x

IMHO it's quite readable too because of additional identation.
