I apologize and don't want to make unnecessary noise. But the already
selected design with decorator @dataclass implies that it will mutate
the freshly created class (which in its turn already limits some
possibilities), or I've missed something? If you meant that everything
should be defined in one place, then I basically understand your desire as
the least of two evils.
