A symbol can only be overriden with a symbol of the same kind in a child 
class.

And if you use a symbol Y as a public variable in a class, then I don't 
see any reason why overriding it by another public variable would be useful.

I don't see any relation with having a syntax to quickly declare a 
property and the private variable it is associated with.
