Okay, but I still don't understand why it seems to matter to you. The behavior of the auto-complete function has no bearing 
whatsoever on the behavior of the compiled project. It is merely an assistant for the programmer.

Declaring a variable or method PUBLIC or PRIVATE determines only its scope and visibility within the project. Public symbols are 
accessible within the code of the entire project but are not accessible outside of the project, unless, in the case of a 
component, the EXPORT declaration is used. PUBLIC verses PRIVATE is not a security issue; it is a scope issue.
