in thread Why get() and set() accessor methods are evil
This is exactly the problem I was trying to bring up ( much better worded by you). If you don't take care with how you use accessors making changes later can force you to change your interface. In general I think a good rule of thumb is to try an avoid accessor methods. However, I can see a few cases where you do need to use public accessors (the CGI module's param() method and some templating modules for example).
