IIUC, the goal is not to make swift look and behave the same as ruby or python, but to be able to use ruby or python object in a swift way (without indirect call and other nasty constructions).

I don’t see requiring the .property syntax and prohibiting the .property() one as an issue. I would even say this is the thing to do, as it would make the swift code more understandable to Swift dev that are not used to Ruby.
