You know, inside-out objects were the one thing I thought I really disagreed with in Damian's book. After all, with competent developers, it's easy to get folks to respect encapsulation and not do naughty things. Now I work at a new company and after looking at the code, I'm beginning to think that inside-out objects are a much better idea "for the masses" than I thought.

Glad to hear it :-)

For me the problem isn't folk doing naughty things. Folk poking deserve all they get. The problem are the accidental interactions...
