While I agree with that statement, I think it was unhelpful. Chris
did not want to know whether function attributes can, in general,
replace decorators. Instead, he wanted to know whether the *specific*
decorator could have been replaced with a function attribute.

I don't really know the answer to that question, but my guess is:
It could have.
