+// PYSIDE-2230: Why is this metaclass necessary?
+//
+// The problem is that the property object already exists as a Python
+// object. We derive a subclass for class properties, without
+// repeating everything but just by adding something to support
+// the class-ness.
+//
+// But this Python property has as metaclass `type` which is incompatible
+// now with SbkObjectType, which generates physically larger types that
+// are incompatible with properties by using PEP 697.
+// Adding a compatible metaclass that is unrelated to `SbkObjectType`
+// is the correct solution. Re-using `SbkObjectType` was actually an abuse,
+// since Python properties are in no way PySide objects.
