&gt; Q: Don't you think that this is mixing two concepts into one: late-initialization and initialization-via-reflection?

It’s a philosophical question whether this is mixing or not, but I think that killing these two birds with one stone is a nice thing to do

&gt; Q2: Can someone explain to me how `lateinit val ` is going to be implemented?

It may well be never implemented, or never expose a Java field (while a `var` would expose it). Asking all DI clients to write `@jvmField lateinit var` is too `public static void main`y for us
