That's absurd, popFront is in no way semantically a property, so 
it should not get @property.

It has been so many years of this being poorly defined. Let's 
just close the book and officially put the status quo on optional 
parenthesis in stone: they are optional on zero-argument calls, 
regardless of @property, and that isn't going to change.

Then this popFront question becomes moot.
