Congratulations, you've found a microscopic corner of the language where 
the two different ways of applying decorators are different.

Are you just sharing with us, or do you think there is a problem that 
needs to be solved?


You're absolutely correct that when using `property`, trying to apply it 
by hand instead of using the @ syntax is tricky. So don't apply it by 
hand, use the @ syntax.
