Yeah, sorry, typo.

Still they institutionalise getters, which is the opposite of what their argument was.

Well, they don't have "getters" either, they have accessors; x() instead of getX(). It's still bad, but at least it doesn't enforce JavaBeans conventions, which is where getters and setters actually originate [0].
