public int this[int x] { init => _item[x] = value; get => _item[x]; }

nit: It would be simpler to follow this test if the setter simply threw if x or the value are above the expected max (9 or 49 respectively, we just need to pick one).

I am not sure what is there to update. It doesn't look like the doc lists specific versions or I am looking at a wrong document.

There is no such thing as a nested initializer in VB. Nested with statements are allowed but only the immediate one is in effect at any given point. In other words, there is no fallback to the outer With statement, the receiver is overwritten.

Do we have to do anything for displaying init-only accessor or property (ToDisplayString and QuickInfo/MetadataAsSource)?

I don't think so. There is no such thing as init-only properties in VB. No special syntax for them, etc. This is just another case of metadata that are outside of the language specification that we are simply doing our best to consume.

This is how ByRef works in VB. If it cannot write, it doesn't write and only reads. This is how regular RValues, readonly fields, and readonly properties (including auto-properties) are handled. No errors reported.

Public Shared Sub Init(ByRef p as Integer, val As Integer)

Is there any risk that the ByRef property could leak and be exercised past the construction/initialization phase?

Perhaps I am misinterpreting the question. This function doesn't get direct "access" to the property. Compiler passes a reference to a local and writes back to the property after the call when writing back is expected.

This is VB "dynamic". Latebinder is inside VB runtime library and I don't think we are going to update it.

I think the change is related to the feature I am working on. And I don't think it makes sense to separate this change and have compilers behave inconsistently.

If we don't, a comment as to why would be appreciated.

We are simply deciding if the property is writable or not, the property is writable or not writable regardless of a language version. I don't think any comments about why we don't do something here are necessary, we are not doing a lot of things here.
