'after' modifies methods, not attributes. after 'new' is valid, although
not recommended (using BUILD is the right answer to the actual
question). The exception is caused because 'after' modifiers are called
with the original arguments, so $self there is still the string
'MyClass', not an instance that you can call attribute accessors on.
