[swift-evolution] Requiring self. to access properties and methods

Hi all,

I prefer prefixing property (and method) access with self. in my code. This makes it immediately obvious if a variable is local to the function or actually a property of the instance.

I assume this has already been discussed and would like to know why it was decided to not require self for property and method access.
