We discussed this whole thing in different channels and together refined
the original idea as well as what the actual problem and a solution
would be.
The actual problem are multiple calls to the constructor because they
break the encapsulation. We know that there are many ways to do so but
this is a very weird one.
Hence, the proposal will be to disallow **multiple constructor calls**.
All examples that were given so far would continue to work. However, the
weird examples that were given at the beginning will stop working and
result in an error.
