<jnthn> Attributes aren't cool.
<jnthn> masak​: huh.
<masak> I'm assuming that they should be... :)
<jnthn> I'm not at all convinced meta-objects should be in Cool.

Rejecting because Attribute should not be Cool. Happily​:

say Method ~~ Cool
Bool​::False

Which also deals with that little inconsistency.
