Combining getters and setters into gettersetters?

It's pretty dreadful. It makes it impossible to set the value to null, for one thing.

My initial thought is no the code is harder to read and therefore maintain. I have gotten to where I either use C#'s auto property or just a public field.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
