Re: [RFC][Vote] Typed Properties

NULL; Sarcasm aside, I still can't figure out how fundamentally changing how people interact with uninitialized properties like this improves developer experience. Can someone explain a case where this is better and catches a bug or something? Since this is a new feature I would assume its not covered by "BC" but this seems like a painful gotcha for people developing across typed and untyped code.
