Thanks. Sad that no one proposed
associated
https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2015/03/upcoming-change-class-objects-rethought/ As you all know, any Kotlin class can have an associated
class object
so, why not just
associated

what do you prefer about
associated
over
companion
?

it is more clear https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2015/03/upcoming-change-class-objects-rethought/
As you all know, any Kotlin class can have an associated class object

Most singleton objects do not stand alone, but instead are associated with a class of the same name
so, all talks about associated, but no one use this keyword
