What we decided to do instead is to define two macros on the side. `defprod` is `defdata` that doesn't generate default constructors. It should be compatible with `defsum` out of the box, but we, for the time being, have the "no-new" counterpart called `defunion`.
Because unions are cool.
This way we don't break existing code, but allow easy to write smart constructors that don't upset #dialyzer.
The code is already live in the #GooLang #Algae fork: https://github.com/doma-engineering/algae-goo

Attention #Algae users. Functionality of generating `new` functions based on default values is staying, **but**, make sure to never write your own `new` functions yourself. Please write your constructors as `def mk`. If you used rose tree[1] implementation, you'll be hit with a breaking change as `rose.ex` moves to this convention. #Witchcraft #Elixir #Goo #MyElixirStatus #MyGooStatus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_tree
