Issue #687
Although I do Swift, I often follow Kotlin guideline https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/coding-conventions.html#functions-vs-properties
In some cases functions with no arguments might be interchangeable with read-only properties. Although the semantics are similar, there are some stylistic conventions on when to prefer one to another.
Prefer a property over a function when the underlying algorithm:
- does not throw
- is cheap to calculate (or cached on the first run)
- returns the same result over invocations if the object state hasn’t changed
