  1. There seems to be a typo at the first code snippet in “3. Private properties”. In “handler” definition instead of “target in key” should it read “key in target”?

  2. “While this is a valid use case, it’s generally not encouraged. More on that later.”

    You didn’t really explain why it’s not encouraged, even later on.
