Can't change property default in subclass

[hadley]

I think it would be useful if you could do this:

library(S7)

foo <- new_class("foo", properties = list(x = new_property(class_numeric, default = 1)))
foo2 <- new_class("foo2", foo, properties = list(x = new_property(class_numeric, default = 2)))
foo2()@x
#> [1] 1

I tested it in my Windows 10 x64 with R 4.5.1 and gives exactly that.

Maybe you mean 2?

Because as a newcomer to S7, the above seems completely counterintuitive

This is a bug report; 1 is the incorrect answer.
