So, this is a constant problem since this deprecation was introduced.

What is happening is that some speculative compilation is checking 
something via the get function. It might not make a difference, but the 
error message is useless (who knows where that traits call is triggered).

Most likely, it doesn't change anything. Therefore when you turn on the 
deprecation as an error, it doesn't affect compilation, it just fails in 
the speculation instead of succeeds. But the ultimate result doesn't 
actually change anything.

I can't wait until this deprecation has been finalized, because I hate 
seeing seas of deprecation messages I can't do anything about. 2.097 
cannot come soon enough...

I'm also looking forward to being able to print Nullable!string values 
inside structs without an exception being thrown.
