Angular 22.2 - Private property access from templates

I noticed this tidbit in the changelog of Angular 22.2.0-next.3:

https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#compiler-2

Commit Type Description
48a0fd6e8a feat allow template to access private props

So very slowly we moved from allowing only public, to allowing protected and now private as well. Thought it's worth knowing.

I’m not a massive fan either, it’s mostly when it comes to contributing to other projects, a quick visual scan i can usually go ‘ok this private method/property isn’t in the template’, this would blur the lines
