Change to static methods like Loop::?

[Bob Weinand]

Is there any concrete advantage?

Having encapsulation and different getters and setters.

[Bob Weinand]

It's not more or less encapsulated with the function than with a static one.

Also, I see no benefit in having different getters and setters. The current solution works pretty nicely and has no drawbacks to me.

Changing it just for the sake of using a static accessor doesn't make much sense to me.
