They're *all* inline and fast, unless we put
hooks in them that make them slow.

The creation of the getter and setter methods
is mechanical and can be automated if need be,
so that's not really an obstacle.  The important
thing here is the readability of the use of these
constructs; their definition is secondary.

The main issue is readability.  I find it more
readable when the notation "f (x)" in ordinary C code
means that F is a function, instead of some other
construct that cannot possibly be a function.
