Me, too. ruby is pretty open, generally. You can specify your intentions
with a class design by using private, but there will always be a way
around it. I liked the old way, where explicit method calls couldn't
access private methods, but you could with send(), two levels of
distinction seemed good enough. 3 seems too many.
