No, actually, that variant has to be there in order to add the outer this field in a ClassSymbol. The overloading on Symbol/MethodSymbol is very hard to parse - i.e. it's hard to tell whether a client would call one or the other. What I'm suggesting is that, since both methods seem to share 99% of the code, you add the extra logic to the old method guarded by a check (which I think is sym.kind == MTH - i.e. if the symbl is a method).
